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.

Marvelous capture! Very clear and spiky ice captured here.

Wow, excellent macro. They look a lot like the iron filings we used in grade school when we were learning about magnetism...

Pity they can't be made into jewellery.

My Goodness! I am in total awe as I look at the intricate, micro mini details of such a fantastic captured image, my friend! My eyes seem to do all the speaking for me, as I look at this, and have little to few words to say other than this is an exquisite composition! Sensational!

Real cold and damp or fog, and we have such ephemeral beauty. Thank goodness for cameras so we can at least save the image and memory of such beauty. Keep up the good work! :-)

So beautiful Andrea. There were frost most mornings while I was over there over Christmas and I took loads of pics of the crystals!

re your saying it deserves a full size look, no problem...I zoom friends, family, breakfast, insects, trees, pens, you name it. And yeah, we see the amazing complexity of the crystals in zoom, and what a tight little dance they make. And I like that you give us a big chunk of the metal (metal?) with the spokes coming out only one one side. Fine closeup of everyday life, you do a lot of these. And it's amazing that these crystals only last a short time: They look like they should last eons (like rock crystal).

Amazing macro! M.
