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!

Lovely image and frame work done in this colorful soft shot of the barrel cactus flower, Melinda. If you could show the entire cactus I might be able to determine if it is a real genuine barrel species. And thanks for reminding me that I have a ton of Golden Barrel cacti pics yet to post in my files. Oh, and Happy Birthday again. Actually, we have only one birthday during our lifetime….the day we were born. Everything following that throughout the years is in celebration and commemoration of that singular event.
