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

That's so pretty! I would be miserable too without my camera!

Stunning capture Carin. I can just imagine that i will be hooked to the Cape with my Camera.

Oh, I know how that goes--I'm lost and forlorn without my camera. Looks like you were able to use your friend's camera just fine!! My son's first serious girlfriend was from Cape Town, nice to see a teeny bit of it.

OH NO! I should have died, I'm sure! I can't even manage the shops without it...Still point and shoot is fine, that's all I ever need myself. This looks SUCH a lovely place to stay, Carin.

superbe photo!

Great job with your borrowed camera! Always wanted to visit Capetown and the rest of S.A. My large Cannon, with all the lenses, is often impractical to carry. So I make sure to always have my point and shoot with me; many of the photos in my gallery were taken with it.

A lovely pin sharp shot.

Now, that's the kind of place I could put my feet up and enjoy just kicking back. Glad you had a fellow traveler with a spare camera:)

OYYY! What a gorgeous and exotic place. I would love to have a coffee there :-)))

SUPERB SHOT!

You forgot your camera Carin !!! How could that possibly happen, I thought it was actually permanently attached to you lol. I think I pack my camera before I pack my kids !! And yes, I now have a daughter as well. One thing is it is sometimes good to test yourself out on something unfamiliar and this certainly shows the interest of your location.

I had to rub my eyes and look twice at your comment about forgetting your camera. It may be the stuff of movie and television comedies/dramas, but these things aren't supposed to happen in real life. I would be emotionally shattered if it happened to me. In any event, happy you were able to salvage the trip with a borrowed camera, Carin, which did a yeoman's job in the category of clarity, DOF, and detail.

What a great place for lunch. Beautiful capture and be glad that your camera was safe at home. I had mine stolen after our granddaughter’s year end championship tournament - including the team photos. Ever since, all photos get downloaded to my laptop every night. Dana

Wonderful capture and how nice of that gentleman to lend you his camera. I would be upset if I didn't have my camera with me

Judging by the comments you are part of a group that could only be without their cameras if they had been sugically removed. Glad to see the little camera worked so well. It's a great picture. Table mountain looks impressive.

Yes! It surely is! Wonderful, I can imagine just strolling along there.. Perfect.. Rob

Amazing impression in this shot. What a stunning basket-building. Love the view very much. I can imagine how it scared you, because you forgot your camera, dear Carin

I would love to stroll there with a particular someone (who shall remain nameless) and voraciously snap pictures. The whole scene here is gorgeous, and WOW what colors! I particularly like the color of the water and the gentle shimmers, and well...the angles, the shapes, and the mountain with those clouds just covering it are all wonderful details in an overall wonderful shot. I've had times when I forgot my camera, and I'm glad that you had the use of a simple point and shoot! You worked well with it!
