I am 58 years young, live in Johannesburg, South Africa and I'm a true product of my continent. I love the bush, the animals, sunshine, sunsets - oh well, anything to do with nature. I am unmarried and have three sons - 37, 33 and 30 respectively and three granddaugters aged 12, 6 and 4 respectively and obviously the light of my life! Photography has always been a passion and I have loved it since I can remember. I was still using a SLR camera and only switched to digital only in late 2007! My other passion is travel and I have been lucky enough to have travelled fairly widely. There are however still many, many places I would love to visit "one day." I am truly an amateur photographer and do it merely as a hobby. So please be gentle when you comment on my work. :-) Thank you Piet, my dear friend, for convincing me to place my work on Renderosity. You owe me one! Hugs, Carin xx

Hon, I was going to site mail but felt you must be feeling sick enough to not be bothered with answering mail. I guess I was right about the illness. I am so worried about you! I know how much better one can feel with a special person for support so three hurrays for Bruce! I like this shot of the feather. The dof is excellent and the b/w tends to reflect your feelings for the moment.

Super!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Splendid contrast and wisp-like effects in this poignant capture, Carin! Sorry about your interminable bout with whatever has you in its grip. If it's a virus, then antibiotics won't help. I do hope and wish for your complete recovery, the sooner the better.

You must need someone to take care of you...thank goodness Bruce will be there so soon! I got teary thinking of you losing your dog unexpectedly, I would fall apart completely. Hang in there, get lots of rest, and those last 11 days will be over in NO time at all. Can't wait to see the shots resulting from your new partnership! And this one? It's soft and poignant, and full of emotion. Sometimes our best work comes when we think we're not giving it any attention at all...

I love this shot. The light on the feather is lovely against the darker grass. Take good care! I hope you're on the mend physically, and are coping emotionally as best as possible.

I'm so sorry to hear of not only that nasty virus, but of the loss of your dog. Bless Bruce for being there for you; these next 11 days will pass in the blink of an eye and you'll finally be together. This foto seems to be a reflection of your mood right now, soft, dreamy, ethereal--be well, my friend.

The view finder sometimes captures much more than the lens of our cameras, don't they... Great mood Carin, take care my friend.

My heart breaks as i read your story about your health and then losing your sweet dog. Omg Carin, bless Bruce's heart for being there for you. 11 more days... wow, the time just simply flew by. I hope you are feeling tip-top by the time he arrives. I will say a prayer that you will find the strength to get through this sad time Carin. Bless you and your family. Hugs and kisses to you! This feather is beautiful .. so delicate and beautifully presented.
