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.

Superb capture and dedication for Mike. God bless.

Such a tempting little belly! Clearly, she needs someone to rub it for her. I volunteer! :)

beautiful shot of Ellie doing what dogs do (they have no self consciousness whatsoever, lol). I hope Mike can feel this relaxed soon. I know hernias can be persistent after their operations, and I hope Mike's starting to feel relief. Get better soon, Mike, so you too can lie around like this, and soak in the sun. Love the shot, Andrea, and a fine get well wish to our recovering friend.

I hope Mike feels better soon. He's a great bloke. And this photo IMHO is one GREAT hot dog shot!

Thank you so very much, Andrea. I'm looking forward to the day when I can stretch out like this. Not anytime soon, though. Thanks again for your well wishes
