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:-)

Uh Oh!!, we have just entered the twilight zone, great effect Bill, as Carin so rightly mentions a very eerie feel to this, nice work my friend.
kasalin
something totally different.... love the effect
DAVER2112
Great shot! I love the postwork, It looks really spooky! :)
skipper62
No! heck no!.. don't you folks see the No Trespass Sign to the right of the building? A building that looks like that coupled with the No Trespass sign probably has a mean ole dog hiding, ready to chew on your leg. You did a great job with this one...Wonderful effect
moonrancher
Um, on the other side of the looking glass, it's hard to say. Interesting idea, though.
Kaartijer
Hmm... is that a hillbilly house? :D Great shot and postwork!

Only if I wore a butcher's apron and carried a chainsaw when I went out for a walk! Brrrrrrrr! :-)
beachzz
I sure would, but only with several very large friends--I love what you did here!!
Meowgli
if it looked like that to me I might be tempted to pop by the hospital first ;) cool idea, good 'trippy' colours
kbatty
What a great effect! I would not go by myself!!
THROBBE
Don't know if I would even stop there! looks like they store radio active material......:) Nice work! Ray
CavalierLady
Funky effect! I didn't see the no trespass sign till Skipper mentioned it.
babuci
Yes I would. Funky colors, I am sure I would find something what I like. Great capture.
goodoleboy
Maybe. At least I'd go in and mosey about looking at their stuff. What is it, a nighttime yard sale? Lots of vivid colors and textures in this composition, Bill.
L8RDAZE
I don't know...this place gives off a real NEGATIVE vibe!
tizjezzme
I'd have no choice; I'd be the passenger and hubby would stop whether i'd want to or not. lol I'd be disgusted and stay in the vehicle... then find myself scanning all the stuff laying around; I see a cool clay pot sitting there. That would be perfect for the plant I need to repot :) Alright, yeah .. I'd shop there. lol Cool effect you created Bill!
Digitaleagle
Awesome work!!!
kansas
Yes indeed! Wonderful.
auntietk
LOL! Nope ... I don't shop ANYwhere! :)
blinkings
Would I shop here...I think I lived here once!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Photoshop on overload here, Bill! Not my cup of tea, as you know, but it certainly has a 'creepy' feel to it. Whats it look like without the Postwork? Rob. (just me, mate. I'm not a fan of Modern Art either!)
Richardphotos
