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.

Don't get too close! Looks like they might snap at you!

They do look rather odd; I wonder what they taste like...are they poisonous?

Very interesting fruit and this shot has multiple stages in the growing process. Lots of seeds. We are listening to an audio book "Moving Target" by J. A. Jance as we drive back and forth to Jo's parents assisted living complex - a 2 1/2 hour round trip - part of the story is in Bournemouth at the High Cliff Marriott Hotel. I Goggled it - very fancy with it's own funicular down to the beach and lots of bath huts.

So beautiful and lush, yet somehow vaguely disturbing. It's hard to stop looking!

Oh no, its the fruit that ate Cleveland! They do look like open mouths. I think the little one on the top is saying, "Hallo, Andrea!"
