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!

I can see how and why this grabbed you. It's a marvel: nearly abstract, nearly concrete, and slightly mysterious. If you hadn't said what this was, I wouldn't really have recognized it, though I might have guessed "one of those flower things" at the very least. The colors are super, and I love the way color and shape seem like one-in-the-same. I'm especially drawn by the warmer, toasty-brown/near-golden tones that seem like rocky (slender) islands in a dancing sea. This works wonderfully.

This is simply stunning and just a small part of the flowering section of this 'big bird' - believe it or not, I have several of these growing in my huge garden, they are almost 6 metres in height and still growing - nearly out of control ... this particular white one is the: Giant BOP - Strelitzia Nicolai, gorgeous colours indeed! thanks for sharing this abstract ;)) BB
