My name is Tara, and I was born and raised in Washington State.
In 2010 I married Bill (bmac62) and retired ... two of the best choices I ever made! :)
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!
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!

Nicely captured Tara. When it gets really hot around here I will think about the lighthouses along the Oregon and Washington coast to help me stay cool. By the way Tara, did you guys see the lighthouse on Destruction Island?

Great shot - I like the softness & classic simplicity of the composition...

I love it when I see a gorgeous image and write a comment for it and it goes up. I hate it when I see a gorgeous image and write a nice comment for it and click SUBMIT and then wait, wait, and wait only to see an internet crash warning telling me "UNABLE TO CONNECT." It makes me cuss like a sailor in some language that only about 10 million people know, and the profanity itself deals with the anatomical bits of rather dim-witted bulls, or nasty things that come floating ashore from the Vltava river. And so after writing a comment and losing it, I've rebooted this woefully overworked laptop and I'm back to make the comment I'd tried previously. So, where was I? Oh yes: WOW! I've really come to get an appreciation for lighthouses. I've always liked them, but they were always so abstract. Then there was that one in Evanston: undoubtedly smaller than this one because lighthouses on lakes probably don't have to do the same things as lighthouses near whole, whompin' big oceans. Well, that's my theory. The first thing that drew me to this one was the nice hat it's wearing; I'm sure there's a technical term for the light-part of a lighthouse, but I've always just called them hats; a habit that started in childhood and stuck. This lighthouse is wearing a very impressive hat! And I love the contrasts of the white stucco and the darker wood (metal?) and the wonderful landscape in the foreground. This is a super marvelous image and I particularly like the little vertical window that would give quite a nice view to someone climbing lighthouse stairs. This is superb and very relaxing. The sky is nicely ambiguous too...which kinda shows how and why a lighthouse would be necessary. This is really super, and I love the idea that it's there (with marble floors!) just itching to be photographed again! Thank you for this. It's making a trip into my favorites, and I'm gonna tell LaTonya about it. This rocks!
