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 needed to see the 'other' version to know what this is about!

I like both versions because of the interesting variations after post work, I also like the tadpole swimming close.

Loverly colors, textures and cloud reflections inherent in this shiny bauble, A. And digifiddling is among the highest forms of art.

This looksl like something organic organic. Nice textures and reflections.

How could you possibly be wasting time? You're retired! All pleasurable activity is allowed. :)

Creating beautiful art is never a waste of time and your digifiddling is an art form. Thanks for sharing the before and afters of this beautiful shot.

The Flickr version is more about the ball and the quiet detail in the water---like ghost images from the past. Very delicate. This is about your colony-loaded postwork, and the ball has become a morass of geological forms, marine forms, tide pools and eddies and so on. It looks like spectacular heat discolorations on a metal surface, or like some glass-born mold colonized and grew upon the glass. Endlessly fascinating. Beautiful postwork once more, and your cropping it right up to the ball itself was dead-right for the piece.
