Mellard's photostream

Hello... and thanks for visiting...

I am an amateur to photography and have only been shooting for a few years now. I have a dear friend to thank for getting me into this hobby. I am having a blast learning about photography and am learning new techniques and ways to view the world around us every day. I also like that it pushes me to stop, view and enjoy the moment. I have this site to thank for what seems to be new inspiration and ideas and views that seem to keep pushing me forward in ability to capture better and better photos of the wonderful places and people that surround me.

PLEASE NOTE: All the images I have posted and share with you on this site are my personal work and the property of James Mellard with all rights reserved. I ask that you enjoy the images on this site but please don't reproduce, copy, edit, publish, transmit or upload them without my prior notification and permission. If there is an image that you would like to use please contact me at james[at]mellard.com or via Flickr email and I would be honored and happy to discuss terms of usage. If you intend to use them for yourself or for non-commercial or non-profit use I generally won't mind their use without fee so long as appropriate credit is given. If they are used for commercial or for profit than I would appreciate something for my work. This will only help me to offset some of my costs around this wonderful hobby.

I also sell prints of select images. Let me know if you see something you would like.
