My name is Tara, and I was born and raised in Washington State.
In 2010 I married Bill (bmac62) and retired ... two of the best choices I ever made! :)
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!
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!

nice color and textures
fredster66
Well caught. Very appealing image!
MrsRatbag
Wow, and I like how yours came out so much closer together; and I think your colors aren't much different than what I did. On a good day (with some late afternoon or early morning sun) this particular piece of useless debris could be a whole day's shoot on its own! Excellent work, Tara!

What a great name for a bay :) I love the look if the wood in this and the peebly ground.. Well done :)
Chipka
WOW! I wish I was there! I have this thing for decaying wood...a holdover from my days of going out and catching woodlice...days which have not yet ended. Anyway, woodlice are land-living crustaceans whose nearest sea-dwelling cousins make wood look like this! All of this is to say, I love this shot, as well as it's companion piece by Denise. It brings back the days I remember of caching woodlice, breeding them, and watching them turn wood into...well...something similar to what you see here!

Excellent. I love the detailed textures so beautifully shown, from the pebbles, to the wood. I also enjoyed Chipka's comments. (WOW!)
MrsLubner
I don't know that they are useless... none of the rotting pilings are useless. They serve a targetted purpose...to trip me every time I walk to the water because I never pay attention or expect them to be there. LOL Fabulous pov!

Is that a bit of old rope at the side Tara? or is it just a bit of seaweed? It can't have been much or I'm sure you would have taken a shot of it. Excellent capture and postwork, and using CS3 as well you lucky girl, is it much of an improvement? The should change the name of this bay to Useful Bay, you all managed to get some great photographs whilst you were there. Superb work. Bravo!!!!!

Great study of these pilings( I'm sure that isn't a word we would use over here but I don't know what we call them lol) However, its a excellent shot and I was thinking of taking some B/W studies similar to this kind of work, very classy Tara!

One of the things I love about living around water is the pilings. Always got to stop and try to take pictures. Very nice and I like the old rope at the end.
