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.

What a beautiful little critter! Love those eyes.

What a handsome specimen. Look at that classic profile. This reminds me of a very old story and since it is the end of the year all old jokes must go.
There's this Wizard who worked in a factory. Everything was satisfactory except that miscreants, taking advantage of his good nature, would steal his parking spot. This continued until he put up the following sign:
"This parking space belongs to the Wizard. ... Violators will be toad."

Love this handsome guy. Frogs and toads have always been a favorite of mine.
This is also a very nice portrait of Mr. Toad.

lol, Mark, now there's a pun...This has mystery, Andrea, great light and shadow, not something one usually says about a frog shot. A wonderful closeup with great lighting. (Do you think frogs see this and say, "how'd he get such great skin???") Beautiful capture. I love these last 2.
