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.

I was surprised to see Ralphie off the lead. Poor boy, he does look tired. xx

He looks very relaxed. I think when the water starts cooling your sensitive bits it's past paddling!!

It seems the water is good for him. Super shot!

Sweet captures I'm glad that he's getting better around other dogs. now if he'd only quit going after the Kitsune he'll be fine

I'm glad he's settling enough to be free of the lead! Sweet shots!

Being off the lead must have been a thrill for Ralph - good for him Andrea!

Ralph sounds like me. He can still do everything he used to. It just takes him longer to recover. Glad to see he's enjoying himself.

cool shots; did he overcome the fight with the fox?

Bless his heart, he's had a rough go of it. At least he felt like getting out for a bit. Beautiful river area you have there.
