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!

Love what you done with thisun Melinda, the textured overlay is great, very painterly.

The flocks of birds really add atmosphere; a beautiful capture!

Great pic, from 1984-1991, I lived less than half a mile from that pier.

Nice seaside image. The birds help to make this photo work very well.

Amazing capture Melinda. God bless.

Beautiful color & composition. Personally, I don't really like the grainy texture in the sky & would have preferred a natural sky (this looks like it would have been a beautiful sky without any alterations), but I guess that's a subjective thing...

Fantastic shot, wonderful mood and it's impressive how many birds flying over the pier. I understand that this is one of your favorite places.
