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 love the play of words there.. also in the distance a boat... can it ever get any better for the photographic opportunities that you discover?, You could open up a rest home there for creatively frustrated artist's... Blue skies, sand, warm breeze, the sound of busy bee's, the scream of seagull's and the sound of the ocean... and some art too!...that would be enough to fix the most troubled of artist's minds. Great shot.

I like the photo on the FlickR side but not sure 64F would be warm enough for me! Also liked your random man photo!

What stories we could tell about an elderly man sitting alone and gazing out at the sea. The best part about your title is that because I expected to see 'Boy' that's what I saw in the title. When I saw the image I had a laugh.
