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.

Fritz has those ladies wrapped round his little paw.

It would be all to hard to resist the charms of Fritz... the master at work... A lovely capture too. Did you say that it takes around six months to train a caring canine as long as they have the right kind of nature to start with?.

Very wonderful and joyful photo Andrea! I don't know who is happier, the ladies or Fritz

The woman on the left in the beautiful blue sweater reminds me of my friend Jan. Maybe it's the jaw, or maybe it's the tilt of the head. Jan is a retired therapist, and she's curious about nearly everything! I love this trio with Fritz. Looks like a good day!

A heart warming photo Andrea - thank you again!

yes, with dana, a warming photo. Another of your heartful captures of the many people your dogs commune with and bring joy to. The woman who's holding fritz seems very happy, and fritz looks very happy too. I can understand how some dogs might find this hard, what with all those strangers, the strange place, the dog being picked up and held, etc. Your dogs must be very people-centered to be so comfortable with so many strangers. These shots show comfort and peace, and they make a beautiful body of work.

Any day with a dog is a good day. Your's give many people wonderful days, and warm cuddles, and probably even kisses! What a perfect day.
