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.

Quite a fascinating fungi, wonderful captures. People in previous image comments stated it looks like brain sections albeit the colour is different and indeed it is like that... this is one you would not wish to mistake for Morel... it could be one's last mistake.. I would put this alongside the Destroying Angel purely as a precaution.

Yikes! What a sight at first glance! You have captured this specimen perfectly, my Friend! Every last detail and texture. Very unique and out of the ordinary... I've never seen something like this before! Thank you for sharing!

Great shot of the False Morel 2, a pretender to the throne of the Real Morel 2. The purple buggers are still at it hot and heavy in this wrestling match for control of I know not what, A.

What an odd little life form and strangely attractive. For some reason the flickr image put me in mind of the Venus of Willendorf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venus_of_Willendorf
