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.

Cracking shot Andrea, diggers are everywhere in London at the moment. Seems to be a prolific amount of them, was on our local news about it last Tuesday.

You are spotting things many of us might overlook, it's so good you have a garden that is clearly a haven for all manner of fascinating insects and other wildlife... first class capture. Do you get hummingbird moths?. Check these beauties out from around the world.... http://www.flickriver.com/groups/mothgallery/pool/interesting/
