My name is Tara, and I was born and raised in Washington State.
Â
In 2010 I married Bill (bmac62) and retired ... two of the best choices I ever made! :)
Â
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!
Â
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!Â

Version #4 sparkles in yet another way...noir, no less. RodS has suggested we visit for night shots which sounds good to me for some future, clear night. So, there may be a #5 and #6 yet to come. I saw you postwork this but got lost after about your third or fourth step. I totally agree with MrsRatbag, postwork often times is more than half the fun. Well done you:)

Now this is SO GOOD. Let's see... first you inversed the image, then you..., no, you didn't because you have the sun refection in the windows, so you...??? Aw, shucks! I give up! Now, just HOW did you do this? Looks like real fun with Photoshop, plus some SECRETS! Looking foreward to more, and some secrets! :-)

Now that looks AWESOME Tara. Superb postwork and it fits so beautifully to this view.
RodS
This is really cool, Tara - I like the effects you've brought out, here! Isn't messing around in Photoshop/Gimp/PSP/etc just more fun tan a barrel of monkeys? I could spend literally HOURS just playing with stuff like this. Really nice! You and Bill ought to go back at night, and get this shot. Think of the postwork possibilities of that! :-D

City at dark. City at night would have been City nuit. But you knew that. Interesting!, as Andrea likes to say.

Beautiful effect! :)

Gorgeous work! I know some of the effects used in this, but have yet to use them myself...and I love the blending, the melding, the overall sense of orchestration; this is having a really great effect on me. I love the color tones, the reflection on the water, bright in all of that darkness...and I like that the darkness is textured, rich and detailed. There's so much to see in this, so much to enjoy and I'm enjoying it immensely. It makes me want to write! That is always a good thing!
