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:-)

Neat idea, great shot. Holy Cow it doesn't seem like a year since you were helping out with the newborns. Save me a piece of cake, I'll bring some snow cream. We are expecting 3 to 6 inches here and people are excited. Hard to believe that there are those among us who have never seen snow. Have a great day Skipper

Ooops, there goes my blood sugar, all the way to the top! Super contrast and vivid colors in this shot of a very unique BD cake, Bill! When I first saw it, I thought the train was the icing, but then where was the cake itself, unless it was of the chocolate and/or devil's food variety, lost against the black background.
