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!

A plethora of tall, splindly white trunks soaring into the blue sky, in this fine foto, Melinda! Glad you're doing better after your surgery. It takes a while to recover. Also, what were the admission prices at the San Diego Zoo? Their website says around 37 bucks or so. Steep.

I like the way you captured that white bark! WOW! The verticals are quite nice too. In a way this reminds me of a really intriguing stage design for a challenging (and highly entertaining) play involving Samurai and women who turn into foxes with nine tails! Okay, I have no idea where that came from, but that's okay. And yeah, those are Birch trees, aren't they? Whatever they are, they stand out perfectly here, and I like the layers in this image...the white barked trees themselves, the lower, bushy foliage with feathery bits, and somewhere in the middle layers, the foliage of more distant trees. I love that sort of visual texture. It's well seen and captured. Nice!
