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

I too thought there was an eye in the middle from viewing the thumb. But even without the eye, it's a wonderfully processed image. : )

You've outdone yourself...but then you always do:)

Have you ever noticed that you get the coolest stuff out of your garden? I think you have, which is why you keep going to your garden and getting cool stuff. THIS is super-cool! I love the way you've taken floral photography and turned it into something visually stunning. A rose, by any other name, is really, really interesting with a B-&-W treatment like this. It's so dreamy and a little bit surreal, in all of the best possible ways. It also looks like a charcoal drawing! WOW! This rocks. And yeah, the idea of celebratory drinks when you arrive in Chicago is definitely in order--or gobs and gobs of really good food! This is amazingly good, and it's a perfect dedication, not just to Corey, but to anyone whose ever had a birthday! Yeah, I like this a lot!

I agree with Chip, this really is a work of art! It looks like something that should be framed. Very classy and I love the post work! Thanks so much for the birthday dedication and you sure know a lot of Sagittariuses(Sagittari?). Love the idea of drinks and food when we meet. Loking forward to it!

Ultra stellar filter manipulation applied to this shot of the lovely rose, Carin! Happy Birthday to everyone listed, and, heh heh, mine is on December 30th. So, the days rapidly dwindle down in commemoration of that event, so many, many decades ago.

Outstanding graphic art. Very creative use of filters.
