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.

Four beautiful newts and I have never seen a water snail that looks like that!

I'm not sure I've ever even seen a newt, much less their eyes! Fantastic captures!

Oh yes, he definitely has his eye on you. We have a politician here whose first name is Newt. A complete waste of flesh he is. Served his second wife with divorce papers while she was in the hospital recovering from cancer surgery so he could marry his mistress. I never get tired of visiting your version of Animal Planet. The pictures are fabulous and learn so much.

Excellent shots Andrea, interestingly, Red Ken (Livingstone) Is somewhat of an authority on these. Don't know if he had them in his office when he was mayor though :)
