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.

Nice capture, love the water droplets like little glass beads. I love honeysuckle, I had the red summer variety round my old home that dropped it's leaves in autumn and in summer is prone to blackfly which deforms leaves and kills sections and leaves a sooty mess.. often required spraying. Just before I moved the whole length of trellis came down but it has since been put back up by the new owners and saved. http://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=2479599&user_id=720061&page=7&member&np

Very beautiful and wondrous capture

Your honeysuckle looks waterlogged in this fine closeup, Andrea. In fact, those look like wet frogs up on top of the stem. AND, how did get such exquisite background bokeh using your Tizzy18?

Gorgeous made more so by the lovely crystal jewelry it is wearing.

Yes, does it smell heavenly? those raindrops, or perhaps dew drops are like perfect crystals on the petals!
