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.

Amazing shot Andrea! This is as big a poser as any bug I've ever seen! Those toes must have something that attracts bugs!

She's gorgeous, and such a pretty face!

There is no mystery here. She is obviously saying "Take MY picture! I'm much prettier than those others." She does seem to be looking right at you. Perhaps I am giving them too much credit but I suspect they know your scent and feel very safe around you. This is an amazing picture.

If I had to attribute a human emotion to your little friend, I would say it was adoration. :)
