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.

Excellent capture and post work, an abstract work in it's own right.. in both cases.

WONDERFUL WORK

Simply lovely in its unobtrusive way, but I prefer Monopoly and Scrabble for board games.

It makes a great abstract.

The phrase 'diabolically simple' comes to mind. Nice post work.

I can't imagine how the game is played, but it makes a fine abstract; and the things on the two ends---one in top right corner, the other in lower left corner---make fine contrasts to all those squares and rectangles. Your postwork brings out the horizontals and verticals well, and the light at the bottom looks like some kind of apocalypse is creeping up on the game. A very vivid abstract, made from a simple board game.

It looks interesting and the rules are very basic but I will have to cut out some cardboard and try it out!
