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.

Man, Henry IV is gonna come to your place and and scream! If all kings and queens looked like this, we'd be in a lot better shape---I LOVE this! I know you probably think it's a trinket, but it's an Andrea piece all over, just without the hours of work you put into your stone and ceramic art. I'd put this on my mantle. And if that's not the definition of a "bad hair day," I don't know what is. I love this dude. 40 stars. (Reminds me of Falstaff's famous line, from either Pt I or Pt II: "Honor pricks me on! Yea, but how if honor pricks me off when I come on, how then..." This dude definitely lacks, in the honor dept...great pipe-cleaner guy!)

Very cleverly created Andrea for a super result. He makes a great royal family member.

That hair looks familiar! Much like the wool lint that comes off one of our rugs. :P This is a delightful piece!

What a charming little fellow! I thought this was the inspiration for Mike's Queen Zlata. He does seem a little bow-legged.
