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.

Beautiful, but overbred. Still ... one can afford to have this sort of thing when one has as many pollen-rich blooms as you do!

What a perfectly formed flower. This is gorgeous. The bugs have plenty, let's keep this one just for ourselves.

Utterly and undeniably magnificent, Andrea. Looks so much like a rose.

I had no idea that there were decorative flowers that did not provide food for nectar and pollen hunters. I am stunned. A spectacular capture Andrea and I learned something new tonight!
