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.

Great macro Andrea :)
Another super sharp image.
Nature's way. Excellent. She was created with a bit of posterizing just to make her different:)
Wow, what a spectacular shot! She's gorgeous, even minus a leg...
Great image! They certainly do have, along with similar insects, very prominent ovipositors! She sure looks ready to lay eggs!
Fabulous macro lots of detail
A fabulous shot, Andrea. Love this little green fellow :)
Fabulous !
You make bugs look so interesting. I have a spider on the window outside, Fred (as we name our spiders) has spun a wonderful big web, I have watched it grow.
I am leaving a note for the window cleaner NOT to clean that window. Cannot have Freds wonderful home damaged :o)))
Great shot - what an interesting shape this cricket has - the sectioned body reminds me of sow bugs...
Amazing capture ndrea. God bless.
Wonderful capture! You never cease to impress me, (Isn't that nice? All these years, and I'm not bored with you yet.) :P
Great macro capture!
Really stunning macro.
It's a great colour.
