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.

...on the wall, who's the fairest of them all... What a fantastic capture, A. If you hadn't already posted so many other fabulous fotos with your team of Tizzies I would say that you've outdone yourself with this beauty. I hope the arachnid appreciates your fine eye and efforts like the rest of us.

"Does this egg sack make me look fat?" Stunning shot. They keep showing up in my place but I haven't seen an expectant mother as yet.

Now there's something I don't see every day. I guess because of timing. We do have this species in Chicago, but the only place I've ever seen them was...well...far from my usual haunts. Great color and composition and I love the fact that you spotted this lovely lady with her eggs nestled neatly in her purse. They're such a gorgeous color too! This is a marvel!
