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:-)

Excellent Photo and wonderful trip down memory lane when times were simpler. I would venture to say that long after the replacement barns are gone this one will still be there.

Strange to me how many old abandoned barns there are in the US. Don't seem to get them like that in the UK. Good photo. I wonder if it's haunted?

the barn is a fine old structure and has a strong dignity, especially in its mix of stone and wood. And the way these things are boarded up gives them an extra visual power. You caught a good swath of its surface & old power, and your capture of the ground (in front) gives it a strong midwestern feel, very prairie-ish; and the trees surrounding it envelop it nicely. Very nice capture.
