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.

WOW You did really well with this low light. I am not good at lowlight shots. They get blured :-/ Perhaps i should try to photograph "my" kittens in MY BED this evening!!! with a night settings instead. Or series... BTW! I do like both of them alot.

Love both pics for different reasons.

Both are excellent but the mono is more atmospheric. Lonely and a little spooky.

I like both versions, but i prefer the mono. There is a strong feeling of solitude and mistery, sharp by the tiny lights in the other side of the road...like 'eyes in the dark'. Excellent !
