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.

That would be an understatement There again, I never did like Barbie.
That is a lot of exaggerated perfection to try to compete against !
I tried but I just can not find it in myself to have sympathy for her plight........ Yes, I know that is sooo not politically correct. There again, no one has ever accused me of that😊 Thanks for the smile today

Funny, but I am not surprised. Barbie has more important things to do!

I don't know Andrea, are the plants in your neighborhood carnivorous? With the release of several new and improved Barbie models perhaps she is just waving goodbye.

lol, Mark...she looks like she got buried in your garden and is saying goodbye...A great catch, and I don't know what her arm is made of, but it looks like candy! Love the shot. And the green hue is perfect for its surroundings.

If not for the hand at the end I would think this was a new sprout pushing up out of the ground for spring. But, now I realize it is just your macabre sense of humour coming to the forefront. :)
