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

Shari, I did write it yes. I love writing but write mostly in Afrikaans. Sometimes, when I'm really inspired, I'll write in English! Piet - Pfft - look who is talking... Speaking of talent... Hellooooo!!

Great photo Carin but your poem is what really impressed me. It's an insight into who you are, what you seek and I hope you find. I occasionally write poetry but very very occasionally
