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.

Live the variety here. The flowers are amazing. And I believe paying someone to do all of that is a very good idea.

I love your beautiful garden...it has been hailed as the best in Great Britian. Sorry, could not resist. Really though I do love you garden montages. This one helps me picture the setting in the neighborhood a little more too. Although I am sure I could never find it without help. I get lost easily. I love see Fritz in there snooping around too. :) I look forward to the flower montage as well. Also it is a very good thing to get help with the heavy stuff. When I was still in my 30's I damaged my wrist permanently because I did work that was too heavy. It still gives me trouble. That is my lesson for being too stubborn to ask for help. :)

Amazingly breath taking landscape scenes Andrea.
Each photo has a story of its own, thanks for sharing.

It's always a delight to see your garden. It gives me a sense of continuity in my otherwise here-and-there lifestyle.
