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.

Fine work.

You have the most colorful birds in your country. The robin has such a quizzical look on his face! I believe he is asking you to expose more bugs and worms for him. Love this one.

I have never been able to capture a bird of any kind on film as beautifully as you do. This one does indeed have an adorable expression.

Amazing shot - color & detail are spectacular & it makes me feel as if I was actually in the presence of this bird. What more can we ask of a photo?

Wonderful with a supervisor like that! Yes, all they want are some easily obtained food items. And, they're intelligent - will stay with you until they find some goodies. When full, off they fly to sit somewhere and digest. Nice photo. Telephoto lens, or it's used to you and no longer scared? Either way, wonderful portrait! Keep up the good work! :-)
My rating - a 7!

Ok, where did you get the stuffed bird? This is the best I've seen. The composition, color and light are outstanding. And the detail is beyond superb. First rate.
