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.

That's one big frog! It's a beautifully taken and composed shot too! The lightplay on the water makes the whole image buzz!

This handsome frog looks like he has a smiling face and love in his eyes. Smiles ! What a perfect quote to compliment your awesome photo Andrea.

Oh yes! I hear that he's featured in the latest issue of Gentleman Frog magazine; apparently he's quite the lady's frog. I love this shot! It is so perfectly composed and is rather peaceful. I love the somewhat knowing grin on that little amphibious face! This is a marvel!
