My name is Tara, and I was born and raised in Washington State.
ย
In 2010 I married Bill (bmac62) and retired ... two of the best choices I ever made!ย :)
ย
In March, 2013, we sold ourย home in Washington and went on the road in our RV full time.ย What a blast!ย 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!
ย
If Iโm missing from Renderosity from time to time, Iโm busy having fun elsewhere.
Thanks for your interest in my work, and for stopping by to learn more about me!ย

Tara, I really like this image alot. But to see it in FULL SCREEN is a MUST. It looks really wonderful then.

What a wonderful image and dedication! WOW! The colors are so vivid (and those yellow things that must not be named, lest their unspeakable evil infest the world) are just as gorgeous as the rest of the picture! I love the play of textures: I've always liked pineapples (they're FAR from evil) because of their skin: I always thought of dinosaur skin when I was a kid looking at them, and well...something about Carmen Miranda will always pop into my head as well...you gotta love a woman who can wear pineapples on her head. (As a kid, I used to like burying pineapple chunks in my rice and then eating my way down to them. Something about rice and pineapples is just so completely right.) Those evil things near the pineapples have always had a wonderful shape, a bit like parenthetical brackets, and I have to admit, I take a certain gloating pleasure in seeing them rot, but I'm glad that you caught these at their ripe prime. I love the post work too! The whole thing just pops and the colors are extravagant. I agree with Helle, full screen is a moral imperative for an image like this!

An absolutely succulently gorgeous image! Zoom even more so. My parrot Byron shares Chips opinion of bananas..

Well Chip beat me to the reference but this does look like a headdress Carmen might have worn. I'm not that old but I have seen some of the movies. There is one movie whose name I don't remember which has a whole production number where Carmen, in her headdress, dances between two lines of showgirls. Each one holds a gigantic yellow evil in front of them so, Chip, consider yourself warned. I was going to make a comment about Chip's amazing stream of conscience narratives but, after looking at what I just wrote, who am I to talk?

Nice pic. Can't have been meant for me: I buy my pineapples sliced in cans and bananas green - I have one every day for breakfast; if you buy them unripe they'll last longer. Who's "Chip"?

Obviously chip does not 'do' the yellow things! Well done on using a record number of filters! lol Only kidding.. Great job.. Rob

What a differece an artistic crop, some label ridding work and a few filters make! This is superb. That was a great day downtown and at the market. Thanks so much for sharing Seattle with me on a couple of handfuls of photo shoots. A wonderful experience:)))
