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.

Quality lasts longer than fashion! Excellent shot and postwork! Do you use them on your toenails? Hehe!

I like this one, with the close crop. It makes me feel as though I could pick them up from here, and go out and trim something. :)

Well, they are a lot more useful than lingerie, and will last a lot longer too! Great shot!

Have Secatuers, will prune. And I see you have the quick draw holster. Of course, with the lingerie you might get someone else to do the pruning. Super crop and selective coloring.

Ergonomically correct and yet a deadly looking weapon!

10 years!!! Dang, I lose more shears than I can count. A thousand years from now, when someone does a dig in my creek bank, they'll wonder why there are so many pairs of the ancient tools buried there!! Great shot, love the color!! (btw, I spray paint most of mine flaming orange so supposedly I can find em!! lol)
