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.

A beautiful bloom with the perfect name for Mike right now. I have high hopes for him as well, and we're all sending him good wishes. (Lucinda is here with us for a few days, so there are three of us on the job.)

a beautiful dedi, Andrea, and your postwork brought out a 'dusty', rustic quality, a visceral, beautiful capture. And yes, the name and lore of the flower suit Mike's healing. I hope Mike heals completely, and with as much comfort and strength as he can get. Get well soon, Mike, I'll be thinking of you on your journey to returned health. Godspeed to you.
(Andrea. I'll return for other comments soon...)

A beautiful flower with a perfect name. And the fact that you describe it is vigorous is a good omen.
