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.

wild and beautiful capture - that blue shadow sets this scene wonderfully

That is amassing not the picture (It is nice) but the fact that I was trying to fix my gate Yesterday the screws came out of the hinges and I had to get down on my knees to fix it and when I tried to get up I fell forward and my head went through the gate and knocked some boards out good thing the screws were loose also or it would have knocked me out I only got a bruise on my head and my pride.

Very nice capture Andrea. I also like the blue shadow.

I am always so impressed by these shots you make of something so seemingly simple and you get the perfect point of view to make it amazing.

The blue shadow is an amazing addition, well done Andrea.

Some beautiful colors and textures on the wood and metal but, you are right, that blue shadow makes the picture.

The shadow is wonderful, as is the bright sunlight on the lock itself. Wonderful image!
