A work in progress! Hi! My name is Melinda. I am happily married to the love of my life and we have a daughter who is in college. I live in Southern California and I am an amateur photographer. My husband bought me my Kodak P880 for Christmas in 2006. I looked at it and thought I'd never figure it out! I've only taken regular every day snapshots and never looked through the lens in a "creative" way. Then in March 2007 someone introduced me to Renderosity.  In May, I became brave and decided to upload my first photo... I haven't been able to put my camera down since! LOL. I still have a lot to learn, but I sure am having fun doing it. I have come a long way though. This time last year, I couldn't even put a photo on the computer! Now I have started to research DSLR cameras ... Who knows what the future brings! Update: I now have that DSLR :) Was the best Christmas (2008) gift!   I did the research and picked it out and Santa put it under the tree. It's a Canon Rebel Xsi .

I have a new DSLR, the Canon 7OD. A gift from my husband for Mother's Day. So much to explore!

Excellent picture. How did you get so close? You can see inside the back of its head in zoom mode, and I still say it has a stone face on its back! Like a lion in a swimming cap... lol ... :) Todd You know there might have been something wrong with mushrooms I had on my sandwich this morning?

Terrific POV, clarity, colors and textures in this macro, Melinda, but I can't reconcile the image of a purple dragonfly. It is beyond my ken. I always thought they were green or ecru...something like that. But purple? In any event, love the delicate vein work in the wings!
