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!
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!
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.

His face reminds me of someone famous that I cannot place at the moment. Tizzy strikes again for a decent portrait.

Great captures, I love the portraits of people you do, the spontaneous nature of a good many of them represents the quality they hold, there is no falseness or posed tailor shop dummy issue's. And this one of the refined gent is great too either colour or B&W. Nice hat by the way.

A super portrait Andrea and I would love to have a head of hair like that. I think I have said before that an anagram of 'funeral' is 'real fun'.

Great portrait, perfect in b&w.

Wonderful portrait! I saw the hat... I love it! :)

He has such a nice face. I'm sure that fabulous hat went a long way toward him saying "yes" to the portrait! :)

MARVELOUS SHOT

Nonpareil clarity, contrast and general lighting effects in this stunning portrait. Have you thought of taking photos of the funerals that you attend, stretched limos and all?

Another wonderful candid portrait; you do these so well!

A member of Parliament? Or perhaps a university professor. A very distinguished image. And that hat is fabulous.

I do like this pleasant smile and the color version. I agree with Ronnie, he does look like an actor!

he has a wonderful head of hair! he has wonderful eyes, and a delightfully smile. He does have a familiar looking face, Mike might have hit it on the head, a version of Jay Leno? But no, it's someone else. Not sure which I like better, the color or the b&w version.
