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

Excellent capture of her! She's not spoiled at all just well loved

To me it seems, that she very well knows you are taking a shot, but she pretends she doesnt, not to lose face :-D Gorgeous portrait and she is a very cute little lady.

MrsLubner
That's right... there are really very few animals in the world that are spoiled... but the number of pampered pets is extraordinary. :-) Great shot, Carin and I definitely see this is a very well mannered and pampered pooch.

What a fabulous shot Carin, and how wonderful you are having such a good time. Barbara (jendellas) has been filling me in on Rendo news and I was thrilled to hear you are in the USA, with hopefully more good times to come. I love this shot so much, a truly beautiful dog to be sure, hugs Jane xx

Well you came and you gave without taking but I sent you away, oh Mandy well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking I need you today, oh Mandy I'm standing on the edge of time I Walked away when love was mine Caught up in a world of uphill climbing The tears are in my mind And nothing is rhyming, oh Mandy .........Barry Manilow Terrific colors, focus and textural effects in this stellar portrait of Bill's canine, Carin!

I rememeber this young lady. Definitely a mind of her own. Your picture is much better than the one I was able to get.
MrsRatbag
She is such a solid little person, with her own ideas about what should go on about her! Beautiful portrait work!

Thanks Carin...this came out great. I'd show it to Mandy right now but she is out in the kitchen for dinner...which means she'll be back in here in under five minutes looking for a little chicken from my sandwich:) Oh, well...she knows what she likes. Excellent portrait indeed. She wants to know where Tannie Carin is?

What a great portrait! I picked her up to show her this picture, and another one on Bill's monitor of Andrea's Fritz. She acted very interested at first, but got bored as soon as she realized there was no chicken to be had up here. (She begged like a champ for our chicken sandwiches, but nothing was forthcoming. She's endlessly optimistic, though! LOL! Now we're getting that "you didn't feed me" glare. Of course she's already had her dinner, she's just being a poot.) She looks quite regal in this shot! I'm sure if she didn't have cataracts and could actually SEE it, she'd be very impressed! I did tell her you took the picture, and her ears perked up. She really does miss her Tannie Carin!

Hiya Mandy.. lol Fancy seeing you again.. A rendo star now.. Really cute shot but I see she had to be pinned down for it... as normal. lol Bet B & T love it! Rob

What a shot! I love the expression on her face, and the fact that she's actually staying still. My only dog photos (so far) involve Kate's dog Molly, and I think Molly is a canine/high-energy-particle mix...something like a canine neutrino. She's fast. She's active. She's a dog-shaped blur in half of my photos of her; she's adorable (and she knows it. She's also quite young.) I love this shot of Mandy...she's becoming quite a well-known lady here on Renderosity, and with good reason. She's adorable and actually stays still long enough to show you that she's adorable! Her expression is priceless. This is a fantastic shot.
