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.

Wonderful capture of a fascinating shade... I love that abstract one you have too, I caught a glimpse of it in the mirror reflection in the shot of you and fritz I think it was, you live in a creatively inspirational home Andrea, I sense positive vibes and creative energy there from all the wonderful shots you have posted across 2013 and before. Wishing you Best wishes for Christmas and a Creative and healthy New Year.

Say, it's only a paper moon Sailing over a cardboard sea, But it wouldn't be make-believe If you believed in me.... Very nice replica of the moon, but this time with insects and flowers added, in this unique BD dedication to your friend, Miles, Andrea.

Oh my, Andrea! It's about time to write a comment under this fascinating paper lamp, and FANTASTIC card for me, as I'm sitting here, and watch this moon, over, and over again. I try to see which dried flowers I can discover, and indeed, I've recognize quit a few. Also I try to imagine how you become awake early in the morning, and you are laying there, so relax, looking t a most special 'good morning moon'. what a great and cool thing to start the day with.I feel privileged that you let me share in this wonderful vision of a moon, where the flowers are as beautiful fossils, not to be found here on earth, but at a much higher level. Thank you, dear Andrea! You will understand: I love it! However, the insects, they from fright have moved at the back of the moon, when you took a picture of them, huh? THANK YOU! :)

For you Andrea, it's always a full Moon, every night and it emanates such a warm glow - Jacomina must be 'Over the Moon' ;P - looking at this gorgeous light - it's so organic ... and we are wishing for you - many more Happy Birthdays ahead and mainly Good Health, Jacominchen BB
