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!

Of course somewhere there is a big, long, boring bunch of info about these doors. But sometimes all you need to know is that WOW---they're beautiful!!!

Wow. Need I say more than that? Yes, I do! You know me, blah, blah, blah :p We used to shine brass on our uniforms at The Citadel with a smelly, thick, liquid product called Brasso. I wonder if the cadets shine brass today with some digital formula? You shined these doors digitally. They look spectacular :*

Now, you're making me feel bad, Tara LOL! As many times as I've been through those doors, I've never taken the time to stop and get a photo of them. Shame on me! It's amazing how blind we become to the photogenic things that surround us each day. What a shame that we're so busy with the 'must do's, gotta get this done's, and I just gotta get this last thing done's' that we fail to notice the these simple but lovely scenes. I plead guilty... Wonderful work on this!

Extremely cool textures in this shot.

I love your comment. Neat treatment and I looked at your dunes yesterday and got lost going (not commenting) to look at your inspiration dunes and then got lost dreaming of something relevant and then got lost -- period. I'm still seeing dunes and it's like an ear worm only for creativity. I love dunes. Thanks for the inspiration.

Fantastic shot and post work!

Such marvelous doors! I love their shine, their inviting gold color, the post work, the whole vibe of this picture. Who needs information when the picture itself tells stories! Nemaean stories, perhaps, or the half-myths of Agara, Ükür, Hsesh, or even Prague? The possibilities are endless and all it takes is an image like this to bring at least a few of them bubbling to the surface. I really like this photo and the postwork you've done. The whole thing works so incredibly well together, so perfectly, and I'm quite sure that all of the precise data that exists, somewhere, the stories you've evoked are far more interesting. Oh, and by the way, I love this! It's quite inspiring, you know!
