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

Beautiful - love the detail & the colors, but above all the softness of this image...

Beautiful capture. Once again you have used light to make A picture special.

I always find it interesting when people go to the trouble of providing the Latin names for plants and animals but I salute you for your practical approach. Hell, I just call them flowers. There's a pink and a blue one and over there a white one, you get the drift. Cornus...Something or Other is a great title for this wonderfully sharp image. The colors and lighting are brilliant.

The crispness of the image is truly amazing. I look at the flowers but I see small fairies in flight, well, at least the flowers maybe. But yea, It looks like they are just fluttering around the green leafs looking for something, or perhaps it's an intricate dance.

What a wonderful photo! My pink one is called "Porlock', which i find rather attractive. I must find out where he got this name one day!

Excellent, I am fond of these also, but have no clue as to "The other" :)
MrsRatbag
they are awfully pretty; it's not often that I see the pink ones, but there are tons of white ones all over here, and one tree that has one branch of pink and the rest white, all on the same tree. Go figure! This is really lovely, well taken!

Cornus Beautifulus Purdyus... Yeah, that's it..... :-D Whatever the scientific name, they're wonderful photo subjects. A lovely capture, Tara!

I'm afraid I've no idea either aside from a totally unhelpful 'Dogwood'! lol Lovely colour though, well taken. Rob

You have captured this in such a lovely way, and I love all I see, special the mood again, is what I find very, very fine, my dear friend. Here we don't have that pink Dogwood, as I've never seen one single plant or tree of them. Dogwood is rare (I guess) in The Netherlands.

Elegant composition !

I love dogwoods too. We had them in our backyard in Louisiana. They were a memory which tied me to my past. When we would drive back to Louisiana each year to visit relatives, I would look for the sprinkling of white among the trees. My sister, Janice, planted a pink dogwood in New Jersey. It died down below the graft and grew back white. At the time, in the romantic angst of adolescence, that meant something special to me, but it really irritated Janice. Beautiful dogwood and capture! The pink is radiant against the deep green.
