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 what heavy looking dogs and cool colored vacuums on the roof of the rusty building. What a unique window frame and stove in the bottom photo. Fantastic finds and pictures Andrea.

This is so surreal. I've never heard the term "reclamation yard" before, but it looks like the kind of place that I'd love to visit (with camera in hand, of course). Like both these shots a lot...

A fitting place for Dyson's. They are designed to catch more people than dust. The amount I see outside places in London broken. I think Mr Dyson is the King of the rip off. I have never and never will buy one, I like Vax. They are more solidly built and king reliable against a Dyson. This is a great shot however, I love that Chopper, I'd have that in my garden, if it were big enough :)

What a fabulous example of found art. Well seen and captured. The second image looks like something after the Apocalypse.

It appears the Reclamation Yard is the British version of the American Junk Yard, where most anything could be found... Great captures

I think that we have the yellow Dyson and we both like to poke around second hand stores and yard sales.
