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.

The highly textured lichen add a touch of badly needed color to the twig scene, A.

I love the color, light and clarity of this. Superb image and a very artistic display by our lichen friends.

Great details and color. Bravo :)

Great capture, Andrea (also the other one) with its fantastic shapes. What fascinates me about these is their often unseen life compared with their importance in the ecosystems...I actually got an crazy/funny idea concerning the secret life of lichen, hope I get time to do it, :o)

Both are excellent captures and this version is a bit better in my humble opinion because of the coloring!

A great selection in your miniature garden.
