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:-)

I love the shot, calm with a bit of cloud to cool the day. Very well done, Clive

What a tidy harbor! I like the way they're all lined up, too. The tide must have changed.

what a wonderful place!!

What a gorgeous capture and some of those boats are disturbingly tall...don't they have listing issues? At any rate, I don't really care because this image is top notch work. I love the clarity and crispness, and the color is superb.

I think I'd like Maine! It's enough like home to make me comfortable. This is a very peaceful pic, and so attractive. Chip has a point about those Obs platforms!

What a beautiful little harbour this looks to be and very popular too by the look of it. A lovely capture.

Crisp and sharp in its clarity, stellar composition, and a nice dark background of foliage to really pop out these boats that are all set to go out and pick up many of the 300,000 Allied troops that are awaiting rescue in the seaport of Dunkirk, Bill.
