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.

Definately wild looking. All the best to those who are under the threat of flooding. May everyone survive the onslaught.

I love wild water ( but not the awful flooding as so many in your country suffer now) but this image is awesome

WOW! real power here, It's a wonder we don't harness it instead of the useless wind turbines eh?

Spectacular and powerful.

A terrific shot, Andrea. Most wild, with also the mist of water spray. It's such a sharp image with beautiful colors in it. I think it's a perfect camera, but okay, you're also a good photographer, huh? I'm so sorry for the people who have to suffer by the flood in England, and this already for so long.

Brilliant capture of the wild scenes filling our TV screens
Katraz
Great shot and that light is just perfect.

Terrific exposure and subtle contrast in this pic of the waves pounding Durley Beach, A. And I'm waiting in great anticipation for your Tizzy25 macros.

A wonderful capture of the beautiful but sometimes cruel sea. I was up Ilfracombe today (12th and there were 30' waves coming over the walls, there were sandbags at every doorstep in that area... I'm about four miles from there. All this rain and heavy winds is seeing a higher level of fallen tree's across roads and various lanes and so forth. Great capture here. Wish I had my camera today but it was an unscheduled visit.

This is lovely, and that spray is quite forceful!

Makes me miss the ocean ...

The crashing waves and high spray makes this an excellent photo BUT I am a sucker for sea foam and the low POV of the crashing wave over on FlickR! Two spectacular Tizzy25 photos!!!!!!!
wysiwig
Spectacular images. I particularly like the POV on flickr. Stormy seas indeed. Stay safe and dry.
whaleman
Both shots are excellent Andrea! Tizzy done good!
angora

(sitting in front of the tele with open mouth. can't believe what is happening in tghe UK!! hopefully someone will soon find the 'plug' to get rid of all that water!!
