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.

I heard the saying 'tied up in knots' but this is ridiculous. What a terrific find.

Oh dear me - talk about getting your knickers in a knot - this is the extreme! Fascinating!

The male catkins are just as interesting.
Thanks for sharing.

it's like tubing, Andrea. Very clear, with strong hues. Large, it's really commanding. You got it with lots of light around it, which really makes it possible to see its many textures.

Also known as the Twisted Hazel. I got one in a large pot at the top of my garden :)
