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.

You've turned yourself into a human geode...

A shadowy figure haunts the streets of Bournemouth taking pictures of random men and young ladies. Or perhaps it really is a geode. A very creative treatment of what could have been a mundane subject.

Outstanding work Andrea. God bless.

This is lovely.

full size, we can see a translucent quality, it's like a geode (yes to Mark), and like marble, or some milky stone. It intensifies on the bottom, with your heavy colonization. In the flickr version, that bottom section looks almost like the top of a dress. It's got a pearl-feel to it, esp in the lighter sections. You did a terrific job with something as simple as a shadow. The human form is striking.

and it follows you, scary 😁
