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'm really sorry Andrea, I know you were his friend. He was a remarkable photographer, and, from what you share, a very fine person. My condolences to his family and friends, including you. It's a wonderful photo, capturing his intensity and concentration. Thank you for letting everyone at RR know, his vision will be deeply missed.

It's a very moving photo who shows what a compassionate person Arthur was. Unfortunately 'was', which will be a great loss for all his loved ones. I'm so sorry.

I’m so sorry to hear of Arthur’s passing. He and I had a lovely (if monosyllabic) friendship over the years. I always felt like we connected, and he was a big influence on my work. His eye for composition was always a delight to me, and his sense of humor tickled me.
