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.

Oh dear. I'm quite happy with the "old and stable" sort rather than the "in again" sort. Of course I got the good one. :D

Terrific post work and quite colorful. Another example where the packaging may be better than the product.

I read tara's comment, and I have no idea what she's talking about, lol. Perfume talk, I guess. But: I had to do at least one bottle shot of yours. Love the intense postwork, with all its snaking colonies and grain. Love the way you handled the reflective surfaces, accentuating the melds and gradations of hue across surfaces. (Boy that was a pretentious sounding phrase! Mark: Shut the f___ up!) Love the light blue of the front bottle. And the feeling that these are tall structures backing into a dark corner. Terrific work on bottles once more. And I love that the left 'wall' is green, while the right wall is more gray. Terrific work, Andrea.
(I forgot to say, I saw a comment of yours in tara's gallery, saying you're still not feeling too well. I'm really sorry you're still struggling Andrea, and I wish you all the best getting past it. I know that, with age, ailments are that much harder to deal with...I wish you healing and strength, and I hope this goes away soon!)
