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.

A strong coat of abstraction applied as made this a wonderful image, and the negative areas boost its impact!

Interesting post worked shot, I would also be interested in the pre post worked original, I'm certain that would be a winner too looking along the quay with the activity taking place.

A big bold collision of forms and lines and colonies. With your signature edge work, and those flattening hue areas, and all those shorelines and tectonic plates. (An old geological joke: "You got any cups and saucers with that?" For tectonic plates??? Ok, not funny...) Because you used white so strongly, you've allowed the colored areas to stand out more---it's a very busy shot, and the heavy whites give space to the shot. I love how you erased part of the shoulders of a few of the people---real abstraction there. And the angles make everything kind of move-in on everything else. Love what you did with this. ("Love what you did with the place"----can you imagine if this were your living room? "Luuuuuv what you did with the place!") Wonderful. And that big dark red splotch on the bottom---bottom right---is the cat's meow. I know, it's a small thing, but I love it: Gives the necessary balance. Love when you play like this.
