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

Gorgeous shot Carin. The red flower contrasting against the green and the short DOF the 300mm gave you are all excellent :)

superlative composition

This is exquisite! I love the delicate flower, the sense of composition, and the whole sense of atmosphere in this piece. The colors are nicely crisp, nicely sharp, and the DOF is perfect. In short, this is a gorgeous, perfect, and evocative image.

You have made this humble flower look superb.

So nice. Good thing about the 300mm lens is the DOF that results. Tell that little flower to cheer up:)

Sterling bit of focus, color and vignetting in this composition, Carin! Forgetting your camera at home is akin to not informing the post office that you're leaving on a long trip and for them to hold your mail until you get back.

You forgot your camera? :| :| I remember the last time I forgot my camera ... it was November 29, 2008. LOL! You did a great job with what you had available! Beautiful image.

I am jealous... we do not get the fields of cosmos here that I recall in Pretoria/Johannesburg as a child. This one speaks to me - as you know I love the technique and composition! My 300mm in my fav! Cheers, Clive
