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.

What a delicate little creature. And your catch of her laying her eggs is simply fantastic.

Stunning captures. Do you know how lucky you are, Andrea? Photographers for National Geographic will construct blinds to hide in and wait for days or weeks to capture the lives of insects. All you have to do is walk out into your garden. Besides, it isn't as though she was going to fly away since she was in the middle of something very important. And shouldn't she be an Empress Dragonfly? Seems a little sexist to me.
