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!Â
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! Â
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 think she'd look a lot better with some wire frame glasses, those are awful, she looks like a cross between brains from Thunderbirds and Jimmy Savile Shame as she is a pretty lady, who I am sure has a personality to fit that wonderful smile.

AH! hang on, are these glasses to fit the 50's theme, and she don't usually wear such hideous things?

I like Greg's button and the slightly Terry Thomas look. Cold hands, warm heart. Thanks for clarifying the look. Definitely a retro look with the big glasses and bangs. Three very nice portraits.

A fantastic smile and I like Greg's moustache also. Greg could qualify as a future random man!
