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.

This is a very good shot Andrea. Have established a link with someone, who is trying to ID the caterpillar, through the link you sent me. Will keep you posted.

You are really quite amazing how you can take an image such as this, do a little fiddle and create a couple of fun art pieces. One looks like a stain glass window and the other like an impressionist painting.

I don't think I have ever seen your place at night. Fantastic image. You have created a pointillist painting.

It's fun to see your garden from the other side, and in such interesting light!

Both images are gorgeous ! The lighting effects are amazing to say the least. The digifiddled version makes me think of Christmas.

Nice, a few years back I purchased a few of the stick in solar lights and then I proceeded to back the van over them one very bent one survived.
