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!

Fantastic macro.

Stellar POV, clarity, colors, lighting and textural effects in this shot of the mystery wildflower, Melinda! The bloom looks like it has a lot of agrapanthus in it. Don't know what to tell you vis-a-vis the garbage disposal.

I adore the colours in this composition! So soft and delightful to behold... a wonderful display and presentation to accentuate the beauties of nature! Makes me want to get out there and take some of these home with me! :) Love the border as well, very beautifully presented and composed indeed! I also must say, that your description of the setting with the "slight breeze" is ever so soothing,and seems to tell the story of this intricate little beauty!
