Hi, I'm Andrea, and I'm interested in creatures and plants both wild and tamed, and people of all sorts. I only use a compact digital camera ,as I love being able to get it into a back pocket, and not have to cart heavy kit about. I carry a Panasonic Lumix TZ series, binoculars and a hand lens almost everywhere.Most of my outings are with the dogs so I only use point and shoot.
I am getting the hang of Photoshop, thanks to some very kind folk on RR!Â
I have a wildlife garden in Bournemouth, Dorset, in the UK, and spend a lot of time there . I retired from teaching art to teenagers a while ago.
I'm now getting some good results with my digi compacts; it took me a while to make the switch from my old film camera, an 1960 ish Pentax Spotmatic, but the mistakes are much cheaper! Â
I have 4 lodgers, 3 dogs and a parrot who, as at 2017, I have had 40 years.
I has so far had 19 dogs, mostly rescues.

What? No rust? Looks great and a fine addition to your collection I am sure.

I think that this lock is tougher than others might think Great capture

Are we getting desperate having to shoot new padlocks now.

It seems an efficient way to stop that round thing from moving in and out, whatever its function! (I can't work it out.) I like the wear patterns and the reflections. Nice!

Shiny! Great angle on that one, makes a wonderful compo!
jocko500
wonderful. I like the colors on this also

The colors, reflections and wear on the door take this beyond just a picture of a padlock. A wonderful image.

It is a great application because that lock would be a trial to hacksaw through, so thieves will pick an easier target!

almost sophisticated paddlock on this door and with your Postwork!

Good idea of composition :)

I recognize a padlock, but not the mechanism that it is attached to. Other than that, an elegant and wonderful contrast of the lock against the dark background, Andrea.

An interesting isolated capture, it's curious how things in day to day life we seldom give a second thought towards look so different in these kinds of captures. Nice Work.

I like dealing with long necked locks and this on emanates security!
