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 always enjoyed looking at the pics of your dogs, and this is a lovely "family portrait" Andrea. :)

The A Team at rest! Very noble! I love this not just because I love all of your dog shots, but because, like the others, this has its own unique feeling. Fritz looks like Marlene Dietrich, looking sultry and with a "you cannnn't be serious, dahhhling!" look. He's the fundament of the shot. And Rosie and Ralph are looking into the distance, nobly, and tired after a hunt. Great trio shot, and another of your impeccably true-to-life shots of your dogs. And btw, the backing behind Ralph is just right, shot-wise. You use your backgrounds very wisely in these shots. Even the bright shoots between Ralph and Rosie are perfect accents. Terrific.

They look rather regal in this shot, stately even! I wish Leya would stay still long enough to get shots like this (: But I suppose that will happen in time and then I'll wish she was as active and silly as she is today.

All looking in the same direction - super shot of your furkids!

Beautiful portrait! Great joint effort of composition. They posed beautifully and you caught them from the perfect angle. I like that there's a little purple flower by Rosie, the girl of the group. They look very relaxed and content, though Rosie looks like something has caught her eye. She may not be relaxing in the sun for much longer. The other two look happy to stay for as long as the sun does. Lovely shot!
