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

Do you mean freezing? Or in the teens? Love this pic, I am a sucker for fruity soaps.

I love things like this ... handmade soaps, candles, froofy stuff like that. I almost never buy them, but LOVE to look, smell, touch ... wonderful! Your image puts me right there, drooling over these lovely soaps. Gorgeous!

@ Andrea - it is probably -3C at the moment - so really freezing. And our homes do not have heating in SA... Uncomfortable...

Oh, this is interesting, and I love the soothing pastel colors and the crispness of detail. Had you not told me what they were, I think it might have taken me a moment to figure them out. I originally surmised they were wafers of pineapple being warmed on a steam table as some kind of rare African delicacy. Then I noticed the tags. Didn't figure edible food would have tags on it, at least not whilst being prepared...Then I had absolutely no idea what this was, but couldn't stop looking at it. Do you even HAVE pineapple in S.A.? Obviously, I have no idea what I'm talking about and my coffee hasn't fully kicked in yet... Anyway, I really like this picture. And, once again, happy (belated) birthday.

A wonderful picture, Carin! :) You're freezing... in Sicily, however, we are "roasting"! Here are 33°C (91°F)!

Stunning capture and as Carin said it is very cold outside with a chilli wind blowing.

After a jayfar comment...it is always tricky to think of anything novel to say:) But I can say I really like this beautifully composed, colorful and clean image.

A lovely and colourful image with a great bit of repetition for those of us that require a good dose of it periodically...I love the cold, but I also need a heated place to go back to--brrrrr! Do you at least have a fireplace to sit by?

A lovely capture of this pretty soap.

Stellar capture of the unusual "fruity" soap in this shot, Carin. Could have sworn this was some kind of tile floor when I first saw it.

It looks good enough to eat! :) I wonder if it could be made into "soapapillas"! ;)
