I'm a self-taught  photographer specializing in nature photography with an emphasis on floral macro photography. I strive for unique beauty in my shots, often experimenting with different perspectives.  I’ve also been a graphic artist and painter for over 15 years. In my neverending venture to create eye candy, I’ve taken some of my original photos and created what I call my digital abstracts.-Melissa Baleshttp://www.printpop.com/MelissaBales en-us http://www.printpop.com/5646&rss=1 <IMG border="0" src="http://www.printpop.com/thumbs/thumb_5646.jpg" alt="Rose" title="Rose"/> Digital Photography http://www.printpop.com/5646 en-us http://www.printpop.com/5645&rss=1 <IMG border="0" src="http://www.printpop.com/thumbs/thumb_5645.jpg" alt="Painted Flower" title="Painted Flower"/> Digital Photography http://www.printpop.com/5645 en-us http://www.printpop.com/5644&rss=1 <IMG border="0" src="http://www.printpop.com/thumbs/thumb_5644.jpg" alt="Camellia" title="Camellia"/> Digital photography http://www.printpop.com/5644 en-us http://www.printpop.com/5643&rss=1 <IMG border="0" src="http://www.printpop.com/thumbs/thumb_5643.jpg" alt="Pink Gerbera" title="Pink Gerbera"/> Digital photography http://www.printpop.com/5643 en-us http://www.printpop.com/5639&rss=1 <IMG border="0" src="http://www.printpop.com/thumbs/thumb_5639.jpg" alt="Infrapurple" title="Infrapurple"/> Digtial - An original photo taken with my film SLR, which was scanned and distorted. http://www.printpop.com/5639 en-us http://www.printpop.com/5638&rss=1 <IMG border="0" src="http://www.printpop.com/thumbs/thumb_5638.jpg" alt="Distorted Gerbera" title="Distorted Gerbera"/> Digital - My original photo without any digital distorting. http://www.printpop.com/5638 en-us http://www.printpop.com/5637&rss=1 <IMG border="0" src="http://www.printpop.com/thumbs/thumb_5637.jpg" alt="Distorted Rose" title="Distorted Rose"/> Digital - My original photo which I have distorted. http://www.printpop.com/5637 en-us http://www.printpop.com/5636&rss=1 <IMG border="0" src="http://www.printpop.com/thumbs/thumb_5636.jpg" alt="New Experiment 20" title="New Experiment 20"/> Digital - My original photo which I have distorted. http://www.printpop.com/5636 en-us http://www.printpop.com/5635&rss=1 <IMG border="0" src="http://www.printpop.com/thumbs/thumb_5635.jpg" alt="Aqua Lily" title="Aqua Lily"/> Digital - My original photo which I distorted. http://www.printpop.com/5635
