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

So did you say hello to Tom Hanks? You could do a lot worse than move to our Northwest. It does get lots of rain and snow in the winter but that's what produces the spectacular scenery you've captured here.

What great contrast between the majestic mountains and the peaceful serene lake, beautifully composed and captured!

Well, it was just one of those Northwest winter days. While much of the rest of the country is/was bracing for blizzard conditions, we had to suffer with weather so well portrayed by you in this beautiful shot across a slice of Puget Sound. Niiiiice:)

Its a beautiful city and state, glad to hear your trip is such a success, be happy you are out west today and not here in the east, very cold and breezy in fact the winds woke me up an hour ago. Looking forward to all the photos to come, have a safe trip back home.

Great shot carin but if you move come to San Franciso or San joaquin we'd love to have you, No lions but I am sure we can find "wild life" for you to film.

There are so many amazing places in the US to live...That's why I want to be able to travel and live in many places when I retire. No matter what they say about Americans, we are a great bunch. :-) Stunning view! Great shot!
