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.

When I saw the 'thumb' I thought it was a conch shell. I wouldn't like to eat it !!

Interesting image. I have fast broadband....the only site that I find frustratingly slow is this one. Unlike our photos, i notice the ads load instantly......

I miss having fast internet! We're always out in the middle of nowhere, struggling along. One of the prices one pays to live this lifestyle. :P
Love that pod. Not sure I'd want to eat it!

It sure has a cool texture inside with all those lovely black seeds. It's a great photographic subjecct, edible or not!

I agree with Jeff about the conch shell. It is an usual looking fruit reminding me of something from a 1960s Japanese horror film. A terrific image with a lot of interesting detail.

with all those black seeds mimicking teeth, it would appear that the white seed would be considered a bad tooth great shot
