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.

Given your interest in all things organic I get a little nervous when I see a title named "Innards" but this will do nicely. Its a lovely clock and it would be great to see it come to life.

LOL, I also was a bit nervous when I saw the title. Glad to see the innards are those of a clock.

something about the workings of clocks that sums up artisanship...even watches, tiny as they are, are just stunning when seen on the inside. It sums up the devotion of craftspeople and artisans, that they'd work so long to make such a perfect machine in such a small space. This isn't that small, but still, the precision is on a small scale; and one can tell that these people aren't just packing gears any way they wish: They put them in with care. Love the brush lines on the brass (I assume that's brass). Love the cleanness of most of the surfaces. Love the 'celtic cross' of the piece on top, and the incised logos, letters, etc. So few people look at the back of a clock (or inside a watch): You know the makers put pride into their work if they carve initials in there. (These could be the company's initials too.) And the shot has all that light in the center, and lots of red shadow around it, like we're peering into a private world. Love it. (I can't fathom spending 500,000 pounds for a watch; but some of the watches at that price---some---are works of art. And one thinks of what it takes to make that on such a small scale, it's exciting. It's a shame that the art is mixed with the hype of the upper crust market, like artworks are. But the visuals can be stunning.)
