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.

Wow, what an impressing series of photo's, as the gardeners are intriguing too, Andrea ;-) It's good you got this men to help you. I'm impressed by that large hedge shears in the rightmost picture above. What a 'colossus' .

It looks like they really did a bang up job and it looks great! They seem to be very likable young men who were pleased to pose for you. My neighbor had a HUGE tree cut down in her back yard last week, and they worked section by section and had the whole job done and hauled away in one day. She said it was very expensive, though. Great collage, Andrea.

A fantastic series of images. They seem to be quite pleased at the recognition.

You and Jeff must both have been infected with the 'green thumb' germ from both. You are both amazing.

LOL @ Mark! Now I'll have that song in my head all day. :P
I like the series of pictures, because I always find it fascinating to watch people work at something they do well. This is an interesting collection, and I thoroughly enjoyed it!
