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 love how this is off center, somehow it makes it even better~~we had that same heat here, but I missed it; now it's back to fog and drizzle!!

Fantastic centring and sublim colors... a great composition Tara!

No, Tara, no 95 here - the hottest thing for some time has been your glorious sunflower [aren't they so very well named?]. The cropping works extremely well a focusses the eye beautifully. Mike

Whoa, my screen just melted! What a spectacular shot of this sunflower! I may have to keep this window open so I can look at it occasionally on this gray and dismal day.
