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.

It's very fractal like, Andrea. And I love to see it with the orange behind. Here they grow in the wild, but maybe I'm wrong, and does it only look the same. And of course I was complete wrong, haha. I thought of this plant, which I saw a lot, even with mating soldiers on: Anthriscus sylvestris, known as cow parsley. I've looked for your fantastic flower on the Internet, and there I saw, they also call it: The queen of Africa. But of course you did already know thus, huh.

It looks like a beautiful handmade doily. And it has some very attractive attendants surrounding it.

This would be a rather dull shot despite the delicate design, if it weren't for the California poppies. Wow. What a fabulous image this is! Your ammi is stunning, and your photography is superb!

It's so beautiful against those poppies, they really let it shine. Great planning and capture!
