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.

As a Parisian (I was born in Paris & spent my first 5 years there), I thank you for your thoughts & for creating this lovely, tapestry-like image...

This says it all, I think you made it excellent, Andrea.

ditto the above...images are so hard for these events, there really isn't anything we can do in one image to touch the hugeness of these massacres...but your furling tapestry (ala claude---a native Parisian) is beautiful, esp as it's the French flag turning this pastoral flower field into a heartful sea of caring and embrace. I see your postwork, which makes it even more into a quilt or silk. And it's like the flag is showing the beautiful French countryside in its furls. Beautiful, Andrea, our hearts go out to your neighboring country-people, and let's hope that the maddened carnage will finally stop.
