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 wonder if he'll get a tug from the old bill to measure the tread?

Fantastic find and a great shot... good way to stop the ladders slipping away. :-)
Faemike55
that is one way to ensure a firm grip when standing the ladder - very good idea
jocko500
good idea so the ladder would not slip

Awesome POV in this pic of the deeply treaded boot, Andrea, used by the window washer in his hazardous occupation.

Great idea and he looks like he's been down on the beach in them, mine always seem to have thick mud on them.

I love both of these shots, they're so in your face with those big blue-soled boots jutting out at us. The flickr one is funny too, because one of the boots is tilted in, like it's reaching out to the other one (like "give us a kiss!"). And the sand makes a great mess, like a kid who just ate some crumb cake and didn't wipe his face. I love that it's on top of his car, too. A really fun shot---it's great that you capture these sights. I don't see enough of them where I live. (This neighborhood is too uppity for this kind of sight.) Lots of fun and captured that way.
