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.

The bright light certainly gave you a dark and well defined shadow! I like the second shot, too!

Excellent idea of shadow !

An example of what they call 'old school'. I love the patterns especially where the strainer and the shadow overlap.

Wonderful image!!! It remember some images of Man Ray !!!

I agree with Mark. The overlap is what makes this for me. What a terrific shot of something quite ordinary! I've got tubes where you put the tea in on one side and slide the outer tube over ... well ... I can't describe them very well, but I like them a lot. Maybe I'll think to take a picture next time I've got one out!

You keep the strainers so you can take great pictures like this.
