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.

lol on "another triumph in my long running series of content over quality!" I can relate to that statement! But whether or not this pic got all the light and shade you wanted, it's a real dog portrait. It fits right in with your long series of terrific dog portraits. (I've often said you should make a book.) In the flickr version, Ralph looks like every dog on earth when forced to wear something on their heads: He's patient, but praying soooooo much that you'll free him...Here, he looks resigned. And lol, Barb---this really does show of Ralph's scars. Listen, I'm an unabashed fan of your dog shots, and this is with the best of 'm---a dog being verrrrry patient while you dress him up in chiffon. He's thinking "here she goes again..." Delightful.

This is so darned cute. This is a super capture of a loved friend. You will be fond of this and the other for a lifetime. Wonderful work.

I've always considered Ralphie the most elegant and stylish of your children. Two great images, especially the flickr version. He looks like he was born for the runway.

I love Ralphie in the nude or dressed up, and the low light makes him even more handsome. Both shots are great!

He's lovely in chiffon! Sort of an Audrey Hepburn look. Wonderful!

I think both shots came out very well! (I hate using flash at nite m'self) and Ralphie looks adorable in both poses. Job well done.
