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.

What a nice thing to have in a garden! I can imagine the soft light peeking out through the leaves of a wonderfully healthy plant.

I thought it might be the pope's hat!

Oh neat! Pierced-brass lanterns; a weakness. Must have. Now.

It looks like either the top of a church or a Catholic religious headpiece. Very nice but I think I like the second one a little better.

Looks like it could be Byzantine! I would love to have a lantern like that in my back yard!
