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!Â
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! Â
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.

It is indeed a Turnip sawfly Andrea, I once had a shot of one of these face on on Queen Ann lace, I will try to see if I can dig it out and rework it, mind you, it may be one of the ones I lost in a HD failure :{ Athalia rosea to give it it's rightful name, great shot too!!

Superb clarity and overall ambience in this macro, Andrea. I'm still envious of the gigantic windfall of insect life forms you have easy access to.
