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.

I like the light on the fence in the other one, but much prefer this closer look. (Really, you say? Tara prefers to see something less than the whole thing? Who knew? LOL!) Anyway ... the other one is a study in light which I quite like, but it's a picture of a fence. This one has a certain mood. It's more personal. It's about emptiness and possibility, and the fence is a barrier, not a light-catching marvel. (Although the backlighting is still wonderful here.) A terrific set of shots!

The courts look well tended, I'm sure in the summer they are very busy there, I like the prism effect you have captured in this shot.

That little lens flare looks almost paranormal. Like it!

Merry Christmas!

This stunner is either a night shot of an artificially lit tennis court, or one taken early morning or late afternoon when the sun is lying low on the horizon. In any case, terrific clarity, perspective and lighting effects in this one, Andrea. And taken with your rarely used Tizzy18.

I'm loving the rainbow sun flare; so where was everyone? Looks like a lovely court, someone should have been there!

I like the color flares and the pattern of the chain links. This close up does have a darker, more sinister feel to it.

Good abstract and POV

Normally lens flare ruins a shot but in this case it adds to a great shot.
