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 pity him and his death, that being said, I know a few humans, or those who claim to be human, this very event...

Poor little fellow. Another example of Nature's prime directive: Watch Your Step.

the placement on that pure white surface (with pinkish shadows!) makes a museum-like presentation, and it's very effective. Heavy duty story too (the heat this summer should alert the U.S.'s climate denying government just how real it is). A very effective shot; you do very intuitive things with backgrounds.
(And "desiccated newt" reminds me of "chrunchy frog" ((the pythons)), or the ingredients of the witches brew in Macbeth, "Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf, Witches' mummy, maw and gulf...")
