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

This is so pretty. I hope you are back from your trip in time to bring us photos of the iris this year. But then, photos from last year are just as good and I wouldn't know the difference. I hope Bill heals quickly.

It translates for me - a picture says a thousand words after all! The tight crop is fantastic. Well done on LWITG and take care of Bill! Clive

Wonderful photo. My mother is an Iris, and even she would understand (and not be even slightly offended by) the term shag carpet... :o) Have a wonderful trip, when you finally get underway!

Splendid capture and fantastic colours! :)

I've always thought irises are a fun flower - it's like a face with its mouth open and sticking its yellow tounge out at you! :-D Really cool macro you have here, Tara!
costapanos
Tara, I could see this blown up/framed and hanging in our showroom. Beautiful macro shot!

Superb macro of the gorgeous bloom. I don't know about an Iris or Shag Carpet, but that sure looks like an orchid to me. And I see there are the usual comments by the village back experts. A LITTLE knowledge is a dangerous thing.

So gorgeous, as only you can do! Hope Bill's back is better and have a great trip!

Another one - just as luscious looking - as the first one ... I must admit, I am not familiar with the cryptic tale, but I've got a vivid imagination ? - who knows ? wishing you both a great adventure, BB
