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.

Wonderful timing! I like the way the pattern of his coat is light and dark just like the wave against the water. I also like the difference between the water above and below him in the image. Above there is the regular wind caused ripples and reflections of the trees and sky. Below the water is translucent and covered with the circular ripples of the descending splash. And the splash is fantastic! Great shot!

Nice Cannon Ball. I see pooch went for maximum splash. What a great summer image. I feel like joining in. It was hot as hell today.

A big splash and the question is did he just want a swim or did he go in after something???

It had to be a springer and at least your car seats didn't get wet.

Great moment! I was thinking of taking my Cola along to the Black Sea coast in a week to make her experience the sea for the first time but, unfortunately, will have to put if off until next summer, as there are some legal problems about train travel with dogs.
