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.

I honestly have no idea what a "cramp caplet" is, but whatever it is, I love the sculpture, and how you made this primal being out of a little capsule or pill. And he makes a fine companion to that skull! You got great textures on this. And, as a film shot, I love it. (Film just doesn't give that sharp 'digital perfection' that we are all so used to: It's softer, more naturally grainy, it has more natural depth, etc, and I love it. I totally appreciate your dislike of the darkroom---I was an assistant in darkrooms decades ago---I just wish there were a digital way to reproduce the special look and feel of darkroom prints, without the chemicals and space requirements. Great darkroom work feels like nothing else...it's unique.) Anyway, I love this combo, and love your sculpture. And the sepia is as good in its own way. I love them both equally.

I like the sepia too. It's got a nice warmth to it. When I hear people talk about the old days in the darkroom, I'm glad I didn't start taking pictures until the advent of digital cameras!
