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.

Interesting and unusual setup and shot. I am asking myself, what has been in the boxes once?

I hope this comes of as the compliment I am intending it to be. But I thought this was a 3d render when I first looked at it. I mean, there is so much detail and texture apparent that I thought someone was doing a study with detailed rendering. I am even more impressed to see that this is photography. This is really cool.

These kinds of shots really float my boat because there is so much opportunity to experiment with objects and present them in different ways.

First place to use this filter would be Westminster. But would it work as well as it does on images?

What a cute set of boxes and how impressive that these have been in your family for so many years, Andrea. One can only wonder at their original uses. Very nicely composed and rendered. :)

Fantastic presentation, excellent details and beautiful light.

OH! I thought the biggest was atleast 10-12 cm high. What a lovely little set of boxes :-)

A wonderful still life, these are so cool!

Looks like a set of matryoshka boxes, like the Russian nesting dolls. Lovely image with what must be quite a history.

I would venture to say that they all 'nest' inside each other for compact storage! I prefer this display version! Mathematicians are more comfortable with stepping up one size at a time instead of scattered around! :

Oh yes, I do like that filter! I go in cycles with what I find best to use, and I haven't been in that set for a while, but I've still got 'em, and was just looking at that very one the other day! (I believe they're from Xero.) I love the effect you've got with this shot. The little boxes are a delight, and I like the way you've got them arranged. :)
