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 can count on one hand the number of these trees I've seen in person! They're fussy in these parts (too cold), so I find them to be enchanting! This is a gorgeous image, Dierbaar. Such a beautiful bloom!

WONDERFUL IMAGE!

Stellar focus, contrast and composition in this as yet unidentified floral ball of fluff, Carin. I have something similar, unrelated to this one, growing on our bushes, but it is red.

Very cool image. I like the little droplets at the tips. Looks just like the top of an East African Crested Crane.

This is an amazing capture! I have seen this flower once before, in Indonesia.The tree is quite big, right?
Meisiekind
@ Issemissen - Yes - it can grow quite out of control. I do keep mine about 2 meters high by pruning it quite aggressively in winter!
