Hi, My name is Bill and I am updating my homepage to reflect a wonderful event in my life...marriage, September 18, 2010, to my best friend Tara...known to many of you as auntietk here on Renderosity.
We "met" shortly after I joined Renderosity in August 2008. We share a love for photography and indeed all types of art.
We live north of Seattle and enjoy getting to share photographic excursions and information with other Renderositians ( is "Renderositians" even a word? ). LOL
As for me, it seems like I've been taking pictures all my life but I didn't get serious enough to purchase my first Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) camera until May 2008. In May 2009 I upgraded from an Olympus E-510 to an Olympus E-30 with a wide variety of lenses.
My subject areas of interest include absolutely everything but with a frequent return to airplanes, cars, tanks, etc., ...or as Tara says, machines that make lots of noise;-)
If you are curious, I am pictured above in a Grumman Corsair on a taxiway of the Kansas City Downtown Airport. I used to fly and train others to fly airplanes. That will explain my frequent forays into the world of aviation. Last but by no means least, thanks to Pannyhb for introducing me to Renderosity. The moment I saw it I was hooked.
Fine print: Yes, the photo above is a photo manipulation:-)

Great. Not much of a view from the Penthouse, however. I guess you could sit on the roof and hope it didn't cave in. Down this way, they call it a real "fixer upper". Now, PJ has just finished a load or work on her house.. Perhaps if we find her quarters in the Boathouse of the other house. She might come and help redo this one. Cheers, Skipper62

Great view - would need a great deal of work I imagine just from what you and the method of its construction. Very nice capture
zoren
lovely structure..... nice shot!

Ahh yes, but what about broadband connection and cable tv. Seriously, a fine capture of a cabin that looks filled with character. Very well done my friend.
schonee
AWWW I love it!

Even people in Hawaii says they want to go back to the old ways living.....if we take our TV's.....;) As for this house, we want our computers. Excellent capture. Aloha
kansas
Yes, I love it.
bronwyn_lea
Yes, I still like the cabin. Great picture!

Great POV and lighting effects in this shot of the ultra rustic cabin, Bill. If you take horror movies to heart, this is the kind of environment where bloody mass murders take place.

Awesome Scene!!

It depends on gravity a lot for stability in a high wind. The upstairs is one I have never seen in this type cabin. Next they'll be doing it in soddys.

A little paint and wallpaper, and it'll be good as new! :) Thanks for the view from the other side. When I was looking at the first shot, I was trying to crane my neck around to see where those stairs went!

I wouldn't mind having a cabin out in the woods for week-ends. However, it would have to be fixed up a little. ;o) I could rent out the top part. Quite the character here.

Beautiful Work!! Fantastic Shot!! My dear friend ... Desire from the depths of my heart that you are blessed in this beautiful Christmas. God bless you! You receive a huge hug from Argentina ♥ ROBY____♥

That's a very cool structure! How much is it a night anyway? :)
MrsRatbag
Great structure, I like it!
Conniekat8
Wow, how cool. I love this.

The neat part is that I'll bet this cabin could be fixed up for the tourist trade. Great POV so we can see the top floor.
busi2ness
Oh yes anytime! It has the air of bygone trapper and hunter eras so reminiscent of various parts of the world. Excellent capture and mood.
junge1
Yes, with the right person it would be fun and could be very romtatic. Great shot Bill!!
MrsLubner
I love those rockpile footings! Fabulous shot.
cfulton
Great sepia work, very fitting! Very well done, Clive
frankie96
An original log cabin for sure..like the wavy floor on the front porch...
Meowgli
good sepia tone suits the subject well, nice shot
Meisiekind
Hmmm - not so sure about residing there for any length of time Bill, but it sure has been a wonderful cabin in it's time.... Wonderful composition and the sepia just adds to the "old" feel. Great work my friend! :)
fredster66
I like the treatment of this image. Very nice.
saretta
Love it!!!And i love the choice of sepia tones to enhance the antique feel,splendid capture!!:-)
neiwil
Worth remembering, this was probabably the 'Manhatten Penthouse' of it's day. The sepia tone really adds to what is an already excellent image.Thanks Bill.
Kaartijer
How much is the rent? :D Excellent shot and postwork!
durleybeachbum
It's a wonderful pic! The sepia suits it so well.
