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.

I love the colors on this fellow. Usually you show us the elongated Duesenberg models but today we get this short-bodied sports model. First rate.

(I haven't seen the name "Duesenberg" in about 2000 years!) Luminous and bold, and yeah, with Mark, squat and ready to plunge forward. You caught the near-denim look of its tail (with yellow, etc). And those stained glass wings, and how transparent they are, over the stalk. You have an immediate eye for these shots, the juxtaposition of the compact body of the insect with that long sleek stalk is striking. A beautiful shot.
