Love the arts in all their forms: Fine Art, Music, Writing, etc. A traditional painter for many years, my introduction to painting on the computer came in 1999. As time goes by I find myself spending more and more time with my tablet and pen in hand. Guess I could have a worse addiction. Since the begining of 2006 I have immersed myself into the wonderful world of photography. I have learned so much in that time and feel ready to share my stuff with you now. I'm sorry I've been away so long, but stay tuned for a daily flood of my recent captures, :)
BIO
Hello everyone! My name is John Minelli.For as long as I can remember I have had a love of the arts in all of their forms and have been striving to be the be the best that I can be. Even though I have been creating art for many years, I still feel like an infant. I find it fascinating that every time that I pick up a brush, pencil or tablet and pen I still learn something new. Although I live in Savannah, GA, USA., I have a great love of Europe; especially Italy. I spent several years working in the Middle East and took several vacations in Europe. I fell in love with Rome and plan on going back to Italy as soon as possible.

I like the shot even if he isn't the most beautiful of the duck species. He looks pretty swimming amongst the ripples and the plants.

I needed Wikipedia to understand what was this Ruddy Duck... no wonder, they do not appear in my country (Continental Europe)... very nice to learn a new species... (one week ago I saw a couple of Common Goldeneye ducks in Northern France... I was told that these are pretty rare in our area... Thank you John for sharing daily your wonderful wildlife captures ! :~)

He's built for blending, I think; beautiful capture!

I find them quite pretty with their bright blue beaks they have here, but I almost never see them. I like your shot!
