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.

another of your sweeping yet personal shots of your ocean, there's always feeling that this is your piece of the ocean, it always feels like it's your personal swath. Beautiful long 'eternal' feeling, so different from my lake...and it has that winter haze, and the groynes, and the light on the water, and the distant hills...a beautiful nascent vision of the new year. Many wonderful things to you in 2017, Andrea, health wise and in every other way. And thanks for all the inspiration you bring here day after day, and the spirit, humor and fineness of what you do. As one of your biggest fans, I wish you great inspiration in 2017. I'll return for more comments after the 1st, but know it's been a pleasure for me, as I'm here, with your uploads, every day whether I comment or not. A great new year to you!!! (and to your dogs too---can't forget them! loved the nose!)
