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

Lovely ! I'm not sure how you achieve the look of your photos but they always look quite surreal and almost unreal.

Oh may! What did you do whit these colours? They are amazing. Excellent capture.

Wow what a gorgeous shot. Colors are amazingly vibrant and point of view with strongly defined forground well separated from background is so well done. Are those colors real or did you use a filter? Regardless this is landscape photography at its best.

Well first off Congratulations to you Carin, being choosen as Gallery of the Month, a well deserved honour I might add. You have some amazing work in your gallery. This shot being no exception, I like the way you have included this unusual looking tree in the foreground. Wonderful colour tones and the mountain looks fantastic against the white cloud background. Superb work, well done you! Bravo!!!!!

Sorry folks, I didn't mention it in my narrative but seeing that so many of you are asking - I did a little tone mapping in CS3 and slightly adjusted the saturation. Thanks for all the comments! Carin xx

Hello my friend Carin! Beautiful capture, wonderful color and composition! I love that magnificent cloud form in the sky! Many apologies for my absence, I am still really sick but see the doctor the fifteenth so hope is on the way. Sounds like you and Bruce are having a wonderful time, I am very happy for the two of you! Take good care my friend and I will pop in again as soon as I am able:-) (((Carin)))
