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

magic image Carin, you have a great touch

A very beautiful image. I think it gets your point across quite nicely. And you were floating in the pool?!? Sometimes I forget that it's summertime there in South Africa. It's winter here in the US. And below freezing here in Florida! It ought to be against the law!!

Great work and yes it looks warm.

Well, I certainly agree with you. This is just exceptional.

LOL... to all my friends concerned that I was in the pool with my laptop - I got out first and then played with the images...

"floating on my back in the pool"---if that isn't bliss, I don't know what is. And your foto captures that feeling completely---this is stunning, my friend!!

Oooh, this is gorgeous! Incredibly moody, evocative, and just plain gorgeous! Perfect work. I particularly like the grasses that seem to spill and undulate like water. Stunning!

Super soft image Carin. This is great work and very well done my friend. Dana

there are a few of you here (Nikolay's another) who do juxtapositions & manipulations that are works of art. This has a Japanese Print feeling (in the clarity of each section, the bold moon, etc). And it has your signature modulated silvery-blue-gray sky. And the tree reaching from ground to moon is quite beautiful. A simple but complex, brooding vision; a piece of evening that we all know but are hard-put to describe; and the lighting in the sky is beautiful. Another piece of introspective seeing from you...
