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.

Lovely. Is it too cold to be out and about? It's too HOT to be out and about here, but I guess the end result is the same!!!!! Yesterday here though was thankfully quite mild.

Looks like high tide, and a bit rough out there. Beautifully moody shot!

we had minus 18C here, so it's ok that you're not going out. But I hope you feel better.
The shot is layered into a sensual silky bottom, the long swaths of calmer waters with waves in between, froth and wind, the distant waters, and the land and sky behind that. A kind of layer-cake made of your coastline, all tinged in greens, and postworked so the wave crests are like jewels. An enchanting and very layered shot.

Beautiful. Every time I see your beach pictures I wished I live closer to the coast. I like Arizona, because everything is fairly close, the mountains, desert, and the coast, but is still about 450 miles away from the ocean!
