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 know the protocol: I skip images, only because I'm slower than most, so I can't comment on everything. I've SEEN everything, though, and I'm a big fan. So it's not easy for me to skip here...) This version of the photo reminded me of a Jacomina fractal. It just has that intensity and inwardness. You did beautiful work with Topaz here. The purples and reds rushing through the veins are wonderful, as is the deep purple of the surrounding leaves. Your 'straight' photo of these is very striking; I love the separation between sections. Whereas this feels of a unit; a single entity. It could almost be a print. It's beautiful.
