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 knew Jeff would say that hehe! His predictability gives me the needle :P But needles to say and joking aside, what a super "Sharp" pic Andrea. And that is one old packet of needles. Excellent results here.

Ich sehen es ist in deutschland gemacht. Lovely old label, full of character. Don't be so sure its not worth much. I have seen price lists for chewing gum rappers. People will collect anything.

A fascinating capture of the needles and the outer pack... invaluable needles I'm sure. Nice captures.
