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.

At first glance I would have suspected birds' nests, but they are a bit green for that; if I was a bird or squirrel that's where I'd nest, I'll bet it's much softer and more pleasant than twigs!

I see a lot of this when I visit my son in Cheltenham.

this is the first time I've seen this type of scene - I didn't think they grew in a cluster. Learning all the time

I really like the lineup of houses, how they're all so similar yet each has slightly different colors and trim. And the slight tilt to the shot too, and the largely bare trees. I think everyone is asking what those tufts of leaves are---I have no idea, but it reminds me of those old hand-muffs women used to wear in winter (which we rarely see in the States anymore). Maybe they're just natural 'ornaments'. The pic feels monumental to me---a word not usually used with suburbia. Very engaging shot, Andrea. Quiet and kind of magical. Good eye on you.

Very beautiful photo, the big trees and the houses in the background. Mistletoes I know well, they grow here also.
