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.

I think camera limitations were made for fine artists, to inspire them to create shots like this. I love what you did with this..a kind of line of lights and flares, as if a huge rocket just flew by and left these lights and clouds in its wake. The moon is looking on, happy. And I love your house back there, in shadow except for that intense orange glow...a really mysterious Christmas Eve shot. And I'm a big fan of Christmas being about mystery--I always like it when it gets primal and mysterious, after all the commercial hooplah that precedes it. Beautiful result. And you turned the ISO problem into a subtle cosmic grain...(Btw, you know what ISO stands for? "International Organization for Standardization". That clears that up!)

Who knew there were all those rainbows lurking around in the darkness? Great you could find them, they make a wonderful accompaniment to that big moon!
