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.

Front and center for everyone to see. I never thought I'd see a cute fish. I get the feeling the little crab is thinking "Just leave me out of this."

(you know, if you had a really sinister sense of humor, you'd add 40 more drawings just as I finish the last one.) I'm at almost 2 hours! I'm gonna finish these! Now THIS one I got on time. I love it. YOu got some sweet gradations too, in the colors. The frontal view of the fish is terrific, allowing it to hit us flush-forward. YOu use colors really expressively in these. And the all-clumped-into-one composition is terrific, broken only by those bubbles, and by a visiting lobster. The leaves really do look like they're underwater. Terrific once again, ANdrea. This too was one of my favorites.
