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 love this. Like long lost friends. Fritz looks as if he is about to lose his mind with ecstasy.

You know a dog is happy when the tongue starts to poke out with the eyes squinched closed. Perfect! I love the overt emotion in this shot, the warmth, and the dog tongue! Yep. This is a good one! They do look as if they're having fun! Dog cuddles are fun though.

Oh, is this super SWEEEEET, I'm so happy surprised by seeing this most lovely and adorable moment, which you have captured so very well, Andrea. Thank you very much (both of you, also our dear Brigitte), for sharing this tender and happy photo. Fritz as Brigitte are looking so very relax! Please give Brigitte a big hug, if you dare to, Andrea, (haha: if you dare, is because I know you're not such a hugging type, am I right?)
