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

I love the light, the colors, the slightly high-key look this has. Wow. What a gorgeous image! Beautifully done, Dierbaar. (Mis jou vrek baie!) :X

wonderful picture!!!!!

This is so wonderfully done. I'd go a bit nutty in a garden/garden centre myself...especially since I'm beginning to try my hand at botanical/floral photographs. My timing's great...winter's coming! Well, I tried. This is fantastic. The color really pops, and I like the cob shapes. Super light too. I gotta catch up, but this is a great place to start. Nice! I like the way I can see three well dressed women in lavender gowns looking out at me. I rather like that!

Lavender's blue, dilly dilly, lavender's green, When I am king, dilly, dilly, you shall be queen. Who told you so, dilly, dilly, who told you so? 'Twas my own heart, dilly, dilly, that told me so. Stellar colors, focus, textures and composition in this sterling shot, Carin! Almost look like bottlebrush plants.

Looks like Spanish lavender, I have a big one in my front garden; last time I pruned it I discovered that I might be sensitive to it, since I stuffed up and got drippy, and was fine by the next morning. I sure hope that isn't true. Beautiful capture of this one, it looks very fresh and raring to go!
