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

Oh my dear! I absolutely adore this! I want one! What's their fuel consumption profile? How many light years can you get to the gallon of gas? See, these are the questions you inspire! I love this. The whole scene is put together quite nicely...it's got a nice X-Files vibe to it, but without that annoying conspiracy running through it. I love the muted tones and the idea that a lampshade AND Namibia can be combined this way. This is so perfect and so in-line with the way I think. Putting stuff together like this is just so much fun and it's so important to think about, really...because if you can do this with art, you learn how to do this in regular, mundane life...and so, ultimately, life can be a game of putting Seattle-based lampshades in Namibia...or something like that! This is a marvel. So potent on so many levels, and on top of it, this is a mighty fine image! I love it! Thank you for the dedication, and I miss you tons, too!

I recognized the spaceship the second I saw it! LOL! It's gone now, as is the bridge, so it's quite possible that lampshade has moved on to Namibia! I love what you've done here. A super combination!
