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

It's overwhelming, all the pictures on your gallery, dear Carin. They are so very special, and an unprecedented example of good choices, as both the mood as objects; an effort to steal the show every time again. I am so excited every time that atmosphere it evokes. Also this again, it's a great whole, and a pleasing to explore, my friend.

Great texture and color on those loverly articulated rings ensconced within the blacker than black surface, surrounded by a circle of miniature bonfires. And are those golden leaves on the side? Excellent, especially for a night shot, Carin!

The sight is beautiful, and I love how this place celebrates that old song. But the photo's the thing, and you captured the high contrast and sense of "fire in the night" beautifully. The rings radiate beautifully in your capture; and the hues---even the dark red berries---are clear and vivid as can be. Love the flames too. Beautiful work.
ps---as I mentioned previously, "5 Golden Rings" referred to the golden ringed pheasant. But we've accepted "rings" for so many generations, it's wholly accepted today. (And a great concept: 5 glowing, gold rings, for Christmas.)
