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.

they are very interesting and completely different When I read the title from the ebot, I had this thought that you had a photo of some new punk or grunge band from England

Superb shot Andrea :)

Nigella Lawson is an English journalist, broadcaster, and food writer. I don't imagine when her parents named her after her father Nigel they had this in mind. An outstanding capture of this strange looking 'thing'. The background adds to the oddity factor.

Lovely fall photo!

One of my favorites. The common name here is love-in-a-mist, and the blue flowers surrounded by all that lace make it easy to see how it gets its nickname!

A great find and capture – a very unique seedhead maybe from an alien race from deep space!
