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.

oooh, a big bursting leaf collection, with some of the nicest reds and pinks I've seen in leaves in a long time. Your composition puts some beautiful reds and pinks (and yellows) right in our faces. And a lot of space around them. Beautifully done, Andrea, with the background giving a lot of space between it and these eye-popping leaves. And the strong diagonal harmonizes the shot...What strong reds! We had nothing like that this year...

Incandescent colors - fine shot...

This is so pretty; ours weren't too spectacular either, aside from a few isolated areas. Love this shot!
