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.

School dinners put me off cabbage for many a year! Great image Andrea :)

Beautiful shot and very creative manipulation !!!!!!

A very appealing abstract. Though some people associate a dislike of certain foods with their visual appearance, the two really have no connection. I dislike most dark green vegetables (kale, chard, spinach, broccoli), but find them visually appealing. I like cabbage though, especially in a good cole slaw, stuffed with ground beef & tomatoes or made into sauerkraut...

Superb capture and post work Andrea. God bless.

Wonderful capture of the big green leaves and fantastic post work. Cabbage rolls, coleslaw, or just plain boiled cabbage leaves with a touch of vinegar are all yummy !

I sure like the way you did this. Very pretty. I'm not fond of cabbage, either. Unless you stir-fry it with egg, as part of a mo shu dish. :)

The one-eyed hooded one has come for you. Great post work. It does look intimidating. I like mine in my grandmother's cabbage rolls or in stir fry with mushrooms, onion, garlic and carrots and a little brown rice. Throw in an egg and some ground turkey and you've got your veggies and protein for the day.

That made a perfect subject for a digifiddle! Well done.

well your fans have given a number of recipes for cabbage! Cabbage is definitely a veggie-with-an-attitude. An acerbic, slightly sarcastic veggie which, yes, can go well in certain dishes, and great in the hands of a fine Japanese cook. In any case, you turned these leaves into a big emerald jewel, or a closeup of a green bowl, with all the refractions and light-morphs that glass allows. It's terrific---in zoom, it just fills one's eyes! Great work, with lots of caverns and highlights, and colonies, isobars, topographical formations and whatever other scientific words I can come up with. (You know what an isobar is? I place where you get really good iso's.) (Not funny.) This almost looks like you've pressed these forms up against the screen. Terrific postwork, Andrea, a real painting. Cabbages everywhere are shouting, "yesssss!"

Oh I adore cabbage with butter and black pepper on, and I love spinach too, same way.
