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.

Love it!

It has a kind of Van Gogh-ish vibrancy to it - very cool. Trying to please everyone is a fool's errand, isn't it? Please yourself & let the chips fall where they may. Or as Rick Nelson said in his song "Garden Party":
"But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well You see, ya can't please everyone, so ya got to please yourself"

This filter definitely turns your image into a fantasy, like being inside a painting. A wonderful effect. If you look just below the wood plank, just right of center, there is a face in the reflection. A water sprite perhaps?

I think it would be cool and trippy to grow a garden that looked just like this...

I love this! Flower power has a totally different feel from Dog's Living Room, but they're both wonderful. This one has more excitement, more vibrance. Outstanding choice!
