My name is Tara, and I was born and raised in Washington State.
In 2010 I married Bill (bmac62) and retired ... two of the best choices I ever made! :)
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!
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!

great capture the title made me think of some ads - "now in Green AND Blue with leaf" "Call within the next 10 minutes and we will send you a second one free, just pay shipping and handling" Very cool photo

I'm not certain what I'm looking at, but it's fascinating !

I get the feeling I'm looking at something sideways. Cool.

Superb capture Tara. God bless.

A little disorienting - I can't quite tell where it was taken from, though I'd guess it was from a point on a cliff or bridge looking down. Though I can easily imagine it as an underwater scene, with reef & seaweed & the leaf floating on a current...

A wonderful and colorful abstract. Nice catch.

This is really a fun look at color abstraction, Tara! I see four distinct bands of color all working together here in perfect harmony. Nicely seen and photographed!

It's obviously the side of an elephant, who happens to have really green hair, whose visited by a leaf flying in the sky, who's coming by to tell him he got a phone call. Or else it's an aerial view of a Pacific Island, with a leaf flying overhead, who started its journey in Borneo and is flying across the whole world. I actually do know it's a shot of a river or brook, where the flow is all in one direction because the grasses are all flowing that way (and we can even see some of them under the water, faintly); and it's beautifiul. And your treatment---rendering the greens vividly and the blue darkly (deeply)---really sets off the leaf floating by. The leaf's a gold-lighted visitor, slowly floating to shore to that grass 'reef'. Another beautiful abstract but real photo from you. You work with these few elements with great panache. And the contrast between that lineated green and the water is beautiful. Very delicate work, for a piece so bold and minimalist.

This is might beautiful. I love the texture in this, but my head wants all the time to tilt 90 degrees to the right, in order to find the bottom and so the leaf can find rest on the waves :-) It seems to stand still, just waiting for this image to turn 90 degrees to the left :-)

Well seen, Tara; my vote is water weed on the banks or some rocks with a stream flowing by, leaf riding the current...unless you were up in the space station and this is a shot from up there of planet Earth and the leaf is a satellite around us. I'll stick with water weed. ;)
