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.

The sky look like this here now Andrea. We are experiencing our first cold weather. We had snow in some areas of South Africa. Superb capture. God bless.

The turquoise insulators pop. Postwork really "makes" this picture.

Much better than the original and more appropriate. These things always make me thing of the alien machines in 'War of the Worlds'.

This one is far superior! With the gray and brooding sky, the insulators are the star of the show, supported by that massive framework. Talbot Heath?

great job on the coloring---this is a Midwestern storm sky! Tornadoes come out of this sky. Terrific shot, Andrea, esp with the spots of highlights. And it's so rare to see these kinds of structures in your gallery. Love the spooky feel...
