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.

The English clergyman Stephen Gosson coined the phrase "Seekinge too make a silke purse of a Sowes eare." It’s too bad he never saw your work. You do it better than anyone.

bravo Mark, my thoughts exactly, with your many studies of abstract forms. When I first saw this (and read your description), I thought, "A leaf has been influenced by Andrea!" I love the closeup, it's like a leaf which has been invaded by numerous diseases. Or else a topographical map of some lava and deadly mineral infested landscape. Part of it looks like a potato chip with a bad skin condition. (Do you say "potato chip" in Britain? Is it "crisps"? I hope you know what I mean...it's one of the awful junk foods a lot of americans grew up on...) The flickr version is stunning because we see it in relation to the plant---the "black sheep" of the family. Wonderful shot. (You should ask it what filters it uses...)
