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:-)

What a delightful sequence, and they are lovely clear shots too. I too get a laugh out of my birds they have great fights and some are so bossy.

That is some great shooting! Excellent series.

A very delightful series....

Great series. Glad it was the woodpecker and not the evil eyed grackle. You need a bouncer for that bird pub of yours to maintain order. Have a good one. Cheers

Another great set. At lunch time I was watching a squirrel trying to get at some hanging fat balls, oh how I wished I had my camera with me.

Reminds me of that TV show.. "Who's the Boss". Apparently its the Woodpecker. Interesting inter-actions of these birds. Aloha

Anyone would think that there were not enough seeds for the both of them! One day birds may learn how to share :) Excellent capture and thank you for sharing.
