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.

What a cool object, that wasn't there when we were, was it? I don't recall seeing it. Love both versions of this.

Looks like it crashed to earth and embedded itself in this beach hut! Brilliant!

wonderful !! is this a glass-bulb or a crystal bulb ??

It's probably metal.

yeah, with tara, it looks like it crashed down and landed in this roof, leaving a big hole that it got stuck in. In zoom, we can really see your postwork, all those colonies and geological lines. And the sky---in the dome---is great. Plus, as others have said, that looks like you and Ralph in the bulb. A selfie of sorts. (And wouldn't it be great, for one day, if the earth actually showed that much curve? If you could wake up and see the earth curve that much?) When you say it "gets about a bit" I'm way dense: Did you mean the bulb is moved from place to place? Or the hut is actually moved? Or just that it gets to reflect the whole world in its surface? These aren't pressing questions, I realize, but whenever I feel like a dunce---which is often---I gotta ask. Love your postwork, and love the treatment of the bulb.

Hehe! The whole hut gets moved about! I don't know whether there is a sudden whirring noise and a flurry of wind in the night, but suddenly it can be miles away! Our beach is seven miles long, so lots of choice.
