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.

Aw yes we have a lot of these under our pine tree too.
Really is a good reminder that Christmas is not far away when one sees pine cones on the ground ! !

Love the way you got in so close & cropped it. Though I've seen pine cones all my life & even have a couple of very large ones by my fireplace, I've never really looked at pine cones this closely before...

Wonderful detail in this image. The layered look reminds me of fungus you have shown us growing on trees.

A lovely closeup, the pine cone looks so different.
