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.

This one is doing a better job of choosing colors! I knew she was there, but couldn't find her at first. White would stand out a mile!

Either you have giant ants in your garden or you have developed into quite the professional photographer with your Tizzie. This is stunning. The DOF this close is amazing.

Good lawd, I see the insects, but that stalk they're maneuvering about on looks virtually like an ostrich, or at least the upper portion of Cecil, the Seasick Sea Serpent.

Your garden is teeming with life! Wonderful capture here!

Very good shot! It reminds me of one I got with a little bug walking right overtop of the leg of a dragonfly. I thought he would be the next meal, but no!

I've wondered about the color thing myself. You've a good eye for seeing these little ones, I had to search for her. A delightful capture!
