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

A wonderful scenic shot Carin, ids there a building of some sort across the water middle far right? looks like the gable of a barn or something. Love the texture of the bark on this tree, it looks to be very coarse, I think it would make a very nice frame all the way round the shot. A bit of cut and paste. Excellent capture, and I guess it is full of fond memories. Bravo!!!!!

Carin, this is so inviting. I could plop down here and spend the afternoon with no trouble...unless there are man-eating creatures prowling about...? Great shot.

Great framing of the scene with natural elements. I suppose the hill is part of the crater brim.
