My name is Tara, and I was born and raised in Washington State.
Â
In 2010 I married Bill (bmac62) and retired ... two of the best choices I ever made! :)
Â
In March, 2013, we sold our home in Washington and went on the road in our RV full time. What a blast! There is so much world out there to see!
After traveling around the West for a few years, we got rid of the motorhome and are now spending winters in deep-south Texas and summers in Washington State. Spring and fall finds us visiting whichever place strikes our fancy at the time!
Â
If I’m missing from Renderosity from time to time, I’m busy having fun elsewhere.
Thanks for your interest in my work, and for stopping by to learn more about me!Â

I don't think I've ever seen a rose like this; it's just amazing. The sneak factor is always so much fun, I just might try it!!

This is a beautiful reminder of summer, and yet a "Christmasy" post as well with these beautiful colors. I love your postwork on this.

Great! A wintery title that made me think of candy canes, then the lovely striped rose that made me smile.........(the rose appears untouched, to my innocent eyes, but what fascinating trick did you do to the leaves?)

I mowed my front lawn today in the frost and chill winds but I noticed I still have a few roses blooming. It's amazing. Just like this shot is amazing. Good clarity and pov.
