My name is Clive, resident in Cape Town, South Africa. I am an amateur photographer who has been enjoying the medium in a more serious manner since 2003.
I took a trip to the UK armed with a Minolta Maxxum 7000 that I had inherited from my Dad.
Out of the holiday snaps, I managed to get a few that I felt were quite good, but had no idea of how I managed to get them 'right'.
Since then I have done a couple of courses in the darkroom and joined a local photographic society where I was on the committee for a while.
Hopefully I am getting it 'right' more often these days.
I have a Minolta Maxxum 7 and being tied into the lens system, the Sony A100 DSLR was my introduction to the digital world. This has recently been upgraded to the Alpha SLT-A55 and I have to admit that I have shot more digital in the last five years than film!
My daughter Kristen (Kris10) and son Sean (fotoSean) have accounts here too, in the hope that they will learn too and share my passion! Sadly they have been rather quiet of late, much like their dad...
August 2015 marks the end of my 3 years as coordinator for the Photographic section of Renderosity. What a wonderful time of my life that I thoroughly enjoyed! Thank you all for the opportunity!
Keep the smile alive,
Clive

Gorgeous light, and I love the color! We painted one of our living room walls a color called "Juicy Cantaloupe." Very similar! :)

I must go to a local park near Austin Roberts. I thing there is similar plants as in your capture and the bird just love the juice inside the flowers and that is an photography opportunity for me.

Marvellous colour and light, and even the flower looks succulant like the leaves!

Awesome Love the color Most of my aloe plants are green with white spots... Never saw an aloe plant this color before,maybe because it's a mountain aloe:) Hugs Susan~

Another stunning floral shot! Amazing plant and colours! I'd love to say, I'll take a trip to my local park and snap some flowers but, they never plant any.. The local thugs would rip them up in days.. Half the trees got hacked down... no reason given..... Welcome to Britain.... Rob
