Konichiwa :)
Basic facts
My names Mel and i'm 24 years old. I have a twin sister called Charlie and an older brother called George
Im currently on my first year of uni studying photography.
What I love
I love anime and marvel comics and would love to go travel round the world to see all kinds of cultures.
I currently work at Fat Face work and have met alot of wicked people over the past year ^^
I'm a superman fan :) Hes is just one of the best DC characters :) To me though the best DC character is the Joker as he is just so dark and sinister.
What I use
I use a canon EOS 1000D with a 18-55mm lens and from time to time im able to get my hands on a canon 7D!
I also get to work with 35mm cameras, medium format cameras and whatever cameras I can get my hands on.
Tastes
I love black and white photos and images which use macros but show alot of detail and vibrant colours. I also love photos that tell a story and have alot of depth and emotion in them.
What I expect
If you want to add me then i'm okay with that and I will add you back but please dont write weird comments and if you have upsetting photos then I will have to block you.
Also if your going to over critise my work I will have to block you as my photos are here to show you how I take my work and what interestes me. If you have a problem with my work just email me the problem dont pick at it through a comment please. I'm not the best photographer i'm only a beginner at this. I can only hope to improve during my 365 project.

Mel whom I fondly call Melfish, Melicious and Ah-Mel-Zing better known by her flickr alias Melcakes88 has taught me so much about the world of photography, cameras and even editing! I have only known this Cool Cat for almost 2 months and not only have I discovered that she is a talented young woman, but a fantastic, fun loving and attentive friend :) She always has time to listen to my life and always boosts me up when I'm down and laughs with me when things are good. I have not been following Mel for that long, but I am always amazed with the photos she produces in her 365 Project giving me an insight of what is life in that redhead of hers :) I am no expert, but Mel's images are always deeply detailed, her forte is bokeh & conceptual images. They are always stylised by that special touch that stands out from many. Mel's photographs never fail to tell us her true emotions and feelings. We rejoice when she is happy and are sympathetic when things are down. A true artist. There are times when I am jealous with what she produces. Her images hold a familiar tone throughout...attention and concentration. In her photographs she focuses on objects as importantly as though they are people, inanimate objects have personality, a tree in a field becomes a story, flowers in a jar are friends and her budgie as a ninja! Mel is not a confident person in life, always doubting her talent and there are times when I have to restrain from slapping her! Not only has she made it on Explore with her photographs, she has been given an offer to study a degree in Photography. She is one amazing girl that I personally believe (Without bias) that she will go far in life and this opportunity will open many doors for her. I also work with Mel part time at Fat Face and I am thankful that I have met such a true kindred spirit in the movie that is Life! She is a brilliant friend and am blessed to have met her through flickr and work. Good Luck with the Future, you deserve all the happiness in the world!
