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:-)

It's a jolly good job I'm tee-total, if this is my night out on Bitter Lemon! Brilliant, Bill, and the 'liver-spots' serve to ask a few questions, too.

A massive myriad of squishy-squashy colors and textures, Bill. Are those tiny black holes and planets I see in the image? An alternate universe, that's what this is! Kind of reminds me of what happens after my session of scalloping potatoes for frying.

Fun to play with different effects, especially when they turn out so well. I see a bird in the upper left. Great fun.

WOW. Nicely complicated. I love it when people get creative, especially in regard to an invitation! This is a wonderful take on Andrea's original theme, and it has the same vibe too...lots of action and interest on every level. Great work!
