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:-)

Oh, Bill! Woodstock is one of my favorite characters (I'm also a Wile E. Coyote, Animal - from The Muppets, and a Felix the Cat fan). I saw Woodie right off! Love this scene as it depicts one of my favorite holiday stories as well. Great composition!

I remember Snoopy, Woodstock , I remember all of them and It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. I think they still play that for the kids yet. Great shot!

I zoomed for Woodstock. He's right where he belongs. Looks like you got lots of future pies there.

Keen kapture, and a real hoot seeing Red Baron Snoopy lying out there on top of his dog house. Wasn't Linus the prime mover in the series part about the Great Pumpkin?

A great capture and I can see the little bird on his tummy when I zoom.

Love Snoopy and Woodstock, especially when they dance! Great photo!

Well, the Great Pumpkin has to show up somewhere! Oh Halloween night, the Great Pumpkin arises out of the pumpkin patch it deems the most sincere, and flies through the air delivering toys ... Personally, I think my neighbor's decorations would cause the Great Pumpkin to pick some other spot ... ANY other spot! ... to rise on Halloween night! It's a little spooky around here. :P Thanks for the fun!

That's just SO cool... We are just starting to get pumpkin fields in southern England now (global warming etc) They now grow there... But, an outstanding Vista, Bill.. Well done, my friend.. Rob.
