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.

I've never seen the seed pods before. They are such a handsome plants, flowers and leaves. A cracking close up!

Terrific image. I like it better than the original. The leaf over the center seed pod reminds me of a cobra's head.

Wonderful postwork Andrea

Both are lovely - are those seed pods of potential fruit?

Nice! I like the postwork, although the other one is beautiful as well. Something as lovely as this acanthus makes for a terrific image no matter what one does or doesn't do to it!

this time I truly admire your postwork. The colors and mood are wonderful

Wonderful work!!! I've never seen them with fruits before, I think they get cut down at the botanical garden before they go that far, or else I just miss them.
