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.

Great portrait of this chipper young lady from RLS, Andrea. I notice that all the girls you've presented from that august group have been blondes.

Perhaps goodoleboy isn't aware that blonde covers grey much better and doesn't then a darker color, and isn't as obvious when it grows out, grins. Personally, it's just simpler to leave the grey alone, it is, after all, a badge of courage. A wonderful serious of beautiful ladies of a "certain age"

I am enjoying this series Andrea - wonderful that four ladies would go off on vacation together and enjoy life. Makes me feel good for all of them and hopefully some long lasting memories!
