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.

Ah, the famous rationalization from Shakespeare’s Henry IV, Part I. If I was an undersized visitor, I too would hide from the humongous and voracious Carder Bee. Terrific clarity, color and detail all the way through, Andrea.

Such fabulous, perfect contrasting colours to bring out the most sensational beauty, Dear Andrea! Seems like one of these critters was already made into “dinner”, while the other one is just about ready to indulge! Excellent capture and lighting!

LOL! He can't see the bee, so the bee can't see him, right? WHat a wonderful shot!

You do capture the most amazing scenes. I thought I heard someone saying "He-he-he. She'll never find me here." The fly needn't worry, the bee seems quite preoccupied.

I'll just slink off around this petal, and get away slick as a whistle! :)
