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 a gorgeous autumn display! I love the acer, and the frog is quite coy peeking out there. :) It's an especially welcome joy to see your garden this month, since I'm currently surrounded by gravel and palm trees.

WOW! You still have a fantastic garden and I so love the violets. And the leaves in the center and the frog peeking out from the water. OK, I love them all :)

Your garden is glorious with fantastic color and composition. Other than my father, you are one of my favorite photographers and truly enjoy your work.

Awesome! Such a rich variety of color! - Well done as always!

A total delight! You do have so much colour and texture during the transition of seasons. I do find I try to zoom on the smaller pictures after I have already zoomed in on the big one, I enjoy the views so much! Do you do it smaller resolution than you used to, or do I need to go to specsavers?

OMG, another month has rolled around as evidenced in this capital montage of your glorious and well tended flora, A. You have more varieties of plants than the nurseries in my area.

Beautiful colours of flora, good to see you do not have any earwig infestations, they can ruin a border. Great images each and every one.

Never a dull moment in your garden, Andrea. I love your froggy friends!

Now this is a very uplifting Autumn view, if you ask me - sensational ! and do tell - did you cut up all that firewood ? - I hope not! because that looks like very hard work to me ... ;P BB

Spectacular garden photos this month Andrea. Love the leaves in the center, cute frog in the pond and a gorgeous red lace maple lower left (that's what we call them on this side of the pond)! Lovely colors!
