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.

Looks really effective.

A very striking high key image, almost abstract. Looks like a water color.

this image really called you...your flickr image is grained and gritty, and almost super-realist. I Like it as much as this, but this one is surreal. I always love how you treat different sections of your images differently. Something I haven't done much of (mainly because I haven't done it well.) The exterior is like a watercolor or other painting (along with some of your commenters), and the interior looks like you've done a kind of inversion, though it's not total inversion, and you've broken it into a big gathering of microscopic colonies---maybe not too comfortable for the patrons, lol, but a visual feast for us. Love how that man dissolves into near white, and the woman dissolves into the swirls (and has a touch of green). A big take-over of an interior---a patron might wanna ask, "what's do you put in your food here???" Wonderful; the interior's abuzz with some kind of futuristic slime-mold that's taken over the restaurant. Very imaginative and a lot of fun. (Maybe there's a review in the local news: "good place, but don't eat the clams, they'll turn you pink...")

Oooooohh! I like this one! (Okay ... I've liked them all, but this one is really fun!) The outside view seems like the whole thing at first glance, but then I get mesmerized by the interior scene. Marvelous!

Oh, this is so well done! I love this effect, that life begins outside the window...
