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

Boy do we need some Texas sunshine It's foggy and just above freezing the ground outside is waterlogged but at least we have power and aren't flooded like in some parts of the UK. Great photo I shall stare at it for a while ,love the light and shade It would be an irresistible climb.

Texas has the best rest stops in the entire country. That's a cool capture with the lighting. Almost looks like an old knight should be coming down the stairs.

Beautiful light and textures I like the worn look that gives the edge of the stones that glazed look, Lovely shot and dedi

xlt lighting!

another of your signature pieces with light and deep dark, and rich golden tones, and textures and mysterious mood. Your photos both speak of the places you visit, but also separate of them, because this piece could be in a cave, in an old monastery (I assume what this Mission is/was), in an old fort, an underground home, etc etc; and it could come from Texas all the way to the Middle East, to West Africa, etc. Universality in the particular. Golden and light-filled, a beautiful image for our dear friend in Denmark (where it's cold like it is here---although we had windchills down to 15 below. THAT'S fun!) Beautiful dedi for our friend. Happy Birthday Helle, and many more!!! And I hope you and Bill (tara) are having a peaceful and loving holiday and I wish you both a beautiful New Year...

Great lighting and texture in this shot of the Texas sunshine, but didn't Helle just have her birthday not too long ago?

I love how the light gets brighter as you ascend the old stairs - as if you're climbing out of the darkness into the light of a new year. With each step the darkness recedes.. Wonderful warm colors - a lovely photo, Tara!
MrsRatbag
Wow, you've done it again! Streaming light over those rocky surfaces that seem so soft and welcoming--who wouldn't go right up those steps and into the light? Happy birthday to Helle!

I just knew these were ancient stones. A superb study in light and shadow. A wonderful birthday gift for Helle.

OHH!!! A staircase with sunny light. Absolutely wonderful, as I have always loved the geometric and perspectively feeling, staircases have. And the colors here are just awesome. Thank you So much, dear Tara :-)))

Beautiful! I love the lighting and textures! The golden glow and the progression from dark to light going up the stairs are wonderful. Gorgeous shot and great dedication. We could use some Texas sunshine today, but not to worry. It will be back tomorrow.
