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.

Boy, these are fat bugs. A super image.
It occurred to me that, with the ebots down for now, you probably did not get my reply to your comments on my latest post so here it is again:
"They are supposedly aware of the problems including the ebots and are working on them. I share your frustration though. It seems every time they make "improvements" things get worse. I, for one, will not upload until the ebots come back. Courage."

Saw a few of these little guys today landing on dandelions in part of our park. Quality capture!

What a stunning shot! High quality, crystal clear. Love it!
I'm working on having a "normal" experience here on Renderosity tonight, and making notes to the PTB about the glitches. My. They are legion!! Hoping for something usable in the end ... we'll see ...

WOW! You have taken a fabulous shot here. Love the clarity and the vivid colors.
Sigh!, finally I found the place where they show my fav´s upload. TSK TSK !! Should have been a more visible and understandable botton.

A lovely photo, Andrea, with cool colors and details. I guess you will dry the flowers, and I'm a bit jealous we don't have them ;-).
But more are my troubles to find my way here, men what a frustrations, isn't good for my headache, or just too good ;-), grrrrr.
Really not easy also when there are no notifications anymore. Sorry, I hope you are doing fine here right away, clever lady!

Great shot with lots of detail.
I may try to upload another shot tomorrow but after making four attempts on the last one I may need to have a paramedic standing by .
