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.

Is that supposed to be a question? I don't know witch hazel leaves and witch one stays. Other than that, a stunning compendium of rich colors, contrasts, lighting and textures in this superlative macro, A.

When I took art classes back in the Jurassic period I remember dropping ink onto a damp pebble board and watching the ink flow and bleed into the texture. These leaves remind me of that. Its as though someone dropped red ink onto the leaves. A wonderful find and superb macro.
