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.

I love what you do with perfume bottles. This one is especially cool in this setting. It fits well with the name.

I think the set-up is just perfect, and very fitting for the outdoors. What a fantastic looking bottle, and the background just perfect! I really like the bright green of the grass, and so lovely the way the sunshine passes through!

If thats your lawn it needs mowing as much as mine, nice shot though.

Kipaji! That's Swahili for Brilliant! By the title I thought you were out hunting tadpoles again.

after looking at both images, I prefer this one! this is based on the description you posted as well as it just looks more alive and dynamic vs the one in the studio (as it were)

Safari, so good. Such a masterful and lovely display, Andrea; you created the ideal venue, so Africa like, to show off another one of your favorite perfumes, with stellar colors, clarity, reflectivity, and lighting throughout.

This is such fine Easter presentation, love the look of it - especially hiding them in the long grass, just like Easter eggs ... very smooth - the colour really pops, a great result Andrea ! have a nice and peaceful celebration ;)) BB

I do like this one with the grass! All that lovely sunshine makes this extra special and sparkly.
