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:-)

Tart. Great close-ups showing texture.

I do hope Dick's comment refers to the fruit and not you! This is a terrific composition, Bill. And it might just require you to do a little series of digifiddles from it!

Some tequila with that...? I do have a bottle going begging! Hic, Clive

Clive oh Clive - Tequila... pffft!!! I was thinking of the versatility of using lemons when I saw this gorgeous shot! It is endless - from Clive's tequila to lemon meringue pie to a hair rinsing agent and everything in between!! Well photographed!! :)

Lemony Snicket's. It may be the best part of a meal, but, unless it's for lemonade, it's hell on teeth enamel. Splendid lighting and textural effects in this marvo macro composition, Bill.

I agree with Andrea (most of the time, actually!), and think this would make for a fantastic digifiddle image! I'm just itching to get my digifingers on it. :D

Zoom really does add another dimension but I'm not going there. LOL. These are how lemons should look with a lovely richness with their texture and colour. You are getting some amazing fruit captures.
