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.

What a nice picture! They're all lined up in such a pleasing composition, and basking in the sun is a grand activity. Wonderful!

Lots of contrast in this pic of Rosie, Fritz and Ralphie, warming to the rays of the sun, just like a row of turtles, or any other reptilian species. Well now, Andrea, besides tending your vast estate, you certainly have your hands full with your computer conversion and Photoshop. I went through the same harangue last February with my eleven year old Mac and new Mini Mac. I had to buy the latest software, including Photoshop, cables, etc., but didn't have to purchase a new printer, just update the driver. The best of luck on this.

Just looking at them I can feel the warmth.

Another gem in your dogs-resting series. How you got them all looking that way is amazing, but if they're taking in the sun, that certainly helps. It almost looks like a portrait of royalty: They're in the lap of luxury, bathing in the sun. And those closed eyes are the best. Fritz, in shots like this, looks like he's wearing a huge plush coat...Terrific. Love it. This also was recommended to my dog lover friends. Zeee best!

I love this trio of sun worshippers. A great keeper photo Andrea!
