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.

Now you've done it. I will spend the day wanting a cake made by a shop near here. White chocolate and raspberry.
Beautiful tulip. Well done.

lol, some of your commenters got famished after looking at this. In fullest zoom, it really does look like a dessert. And, with Mark, it is a bit pornographic. You caught all the swirls and whooshes of the thing, and your pov makes it into a big bowl, a canyon. Also, in zoom we can see your postwork on the plants surrounding, something you do better than anyone. It's beautiful edge work with lots of dark to set it off. A deeply sensual bowl of a shot, with luscious pinks and purples, and a dessert in the center.
