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!

Impressively scary to say the least - outstanding capture.

My first impression was fire storm, but a closer look makes me think of a sand storm. Good job with this photo. :-)

Mesmerizing and apocalyptic. Love how you captured a part of the landscape as it was about to be swallowed up. It gives a great sense of size.

ok, one last one, tara (for this visit), I had to do this image as well. (Btw, rr seems to have addressed the 'too small' zoom problem by making zooms humongous---at least on my computer. I zoomed this, and it went to, like, 400%. So I dragged it to the desktop and sized it to 100%, and it's splendid.) More of your textured light and clouds; very ansel adams-like, in the way he masterfully textured light and sky. And the clouds, because of their silken presence, feel like an apocalypse come down to earth. They are almost unreal next to the landscape. Yet their hue picks up the landscape, and it's beautiful. Reminds me of those duststorms we spoke of. The landscape is its usual deep reddish oranges, and it's beautiful too. And you mixed in the dark foreground as a strong accent/ground for the piece. A big looming beautiful apocalypse, with a to-die-for deep orange. Gorgeous shooting and postwork, with more of your "darkroom"-like developing...
