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

Well seen, and a great shot!

Oh, this should be right up Chip's alley. Sort of reminds me of old Sci-Fi movies where the crew and passengers are put in stasis for a many year space flight to other worlds and other galexies. Imagine waking up after 300 years and still being 39. LOL. I like this...the shadowy figure and all...

Have to agree with bmac62, very other worldly Tara. Excellent work my dear.

Oh yeah, Chip will have a few words about this--well, probably more than a few and we'll all just find our jaws on the floor when he says them!! What a great shot; it does have that surreal, mysterious look to it!!

Very nice capture.

Peculiar in the extreme! What is in those perspex pods, I wonder! Something unpleasant, I'll be bound. I'm sure Chip will tell us!

Got to be a story there for sure...excellent looking capture
hipps13
wonderful capture warm hugs Linda Kaye

I think it must be the ghost of someone who lost their luggage and they are still searching for it from the after life. This is a great photo and I'm eagerly awaiting Chip's story as well.

This is stunning. The picture tells stories all of its own! Cheers, Clive

Looks to be a great photo for a story :-D

WOW!!!!! What a shot! That could definitely be Samantha...or even Dorianna, since the whole plexiglas capsule things look a bit...well...interstellar in nature...you'd have to travel in isolation when going to Nemaea since Nemaea is rather um...well...biologically active and full of little critters that like to live inside the human respiratory and gastrointestinal systems. As for Ükür...well...it's quite obvious that they like to keep their planes very clean there. Kind of like Australia with all of those wildlife import bans because of the unique and woefully endangered ecosystem there...all hell would break loose if some bacterial or fungal or even insectoid hitchhiker managed to get into the outback. It's the same with Ükür, only they're more afraid of local hitchhikers getting out of the country and devouring reality, or just pooping where they shouldn't...which would have catastrophic effects since Ükür is home to the ONE species of predatory, motile lichen known to humankind. It wouldn't do for a tourist to leave the country with predatory, walking-lichen spores on their shoes. Nor would it do to have travelers entering the country with spores or something that would draw the ravenous appetites of the dreaded jumping brain-sucker lichen of Ükür. Imagine what tourists without decontamination pods on any United Airlines Flight bound from wherever to Ükür would endure if they just so happened to carry dandelion pollen, which attracts those annoying, voracious lichens! Oh, and by the way, I'm winging this...I had no idea that there was a species of lichen in Ükür with rather mosquito-like feeding habits and the ability to walk, jump, or just mosey about for the heck of it. Now I'm wondering what such a lichen might look like...I suspect Andrea has a picture of it somewhere...and that might also explain the sudden absence of something that might have vanished from her garden. You never know. She did post a rather curious flower with eyes, after all! Anyway, I love this image, and the fact that it could be any of two really compelling women...Samantha, obviously (Samantha has that general body shape after all, and she's obviously wearing her hair down, to look "pretty" for the Ükür National Police...those bored looking guys and gals in black uniforms always demanding to "see that your papers are in order, yes?" This shot rocks. I love the futuristic/otherworldly vibe of it as well as the gleaming plexigalss and the mysterious, sillhouette of a woman who has no idea that she's just slipped into some alternate digital universe! This shot rocks! I love it!

The Concord, one of the coolest planes made other then the SR71. Very cool capture, I love the lines and lighting here.
jocko500
I love the way they build this area

This is a really cool looking image, great shot!
elfin14doaks
This is a really cool shot! I love the silhouette at the top. Very cool.
bazza
Very lovely shot Tara it looks great well done!!
MrsLubner
It immediately brought to mind cryogenics and the possibility of frozen-in-time bodies lining the room... :-) Good one!
frankie96
Sci-Fi at its best..so many possibilites for verbiage..if I had any talent for that...
wysiwig
D'oh! I was there in December and never thought to take a picture! This really is a very cool shot. You and I know what's behind the plexiglass but we'll just let that be our little secret.
danob
Very other worldly and quite spooky!
lucindawind
a very interesting shot ! nicely taken
pauldeleu
Interesting background information.
mermaid
what a special shot, looks so alien
Katraz
Looks like something out of a science fiction film.
moochagoo
Looks like a SciFi picture. I've seen the Concord too in a museum north of Paris.
