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

Glad we saw this in April in 75 degrees rather than now at 105-110 degrees. Beautiful treatment of the adobe texture:)

It's a lot better looking than some of the Mall's around here.

You could have fooled me! 75 degrees is too much for me, your postwork has cooled it down a bit.

Splendid work on this Tara. we were only there for a couple of hours so I don't remember a lot about the place.

Fantastic shot!

There is a shopping mall in Mystic, CT like that! It tries to evoke the feeling of an old New England Village only everything is too new to actually do it well. Nice postwork on this Tara!

Wonderful shot, Tara! The textures and colours are just yummy...love that southwest architecture!
debbielove
It certainly looks much older! If that is the way its built or your postwork, a very good job indeed! Beautiful picture Tata! Well done! Rob

A lovely capture of this entrance, so different from other malls. It does have a lovely mellow look.

Lovely, Tara! Both the building and you photo/postwork of it! Wonderful, warm colors, and excellent composition!

This is gorgeous, I love this style of architecture and you've captured it to perfection.

Beautifully captured Tara. You just make me realize how little I have seen of Sedona. But I usually just drive through there(if I have to). Too many tourists for my taste and too much traffic, but it is scenic and there is some beautiful archtecture. And you found it. Great shot!

They did a good job making this place look old and interesting. Pricey place, though!!

I am impressed. Once, in Chicago (pre Prague) I saw a man applying corrosives to a metal sign outside of a snazzy, really expensive boutique: you know the kind, a Gold Coast kind of place where the air is chilly and oddly rarified and the cheapest item for sale has 3 or 4 digits before the decimal point, and it's something you can only wear once. The place itself was as new as the building housing it, but it was in antique drag. The corrosives were some kind of oxidation accellerant. A week later, the sign looked old and actually had rust holes in it. I was impressed. But I think that Chicago can learn a lot from the designers of this mall! The color shift is brilliant and it has me thinking about Agara. Hmmm...quite a lot has me thinking about Agara these days, and I suspect something has to come out of it. We shall see... ...anyway, I love this shot! I love the absence of people in it and the aged effect. Architectural rather than digital postwork? Nice! This really appeals to me. Oh, and in answer to a question you'd asked...yeah, that guy does have a kind of Corey thing going...the one next to him too, but maybe it was just the sunglasses.

cool

Terrific image. Take out the handrail and it could be mistaken for something much older. Very clever design. It really invites you to explore. Excellent post work.

What a fabulous shot this is, the soft edges on the wall reminds me of adobe houses :-)

Very nice indeed!
