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 bet it was hard to leave. Feels very warm and reassuring like a cocoon. Gorgeous light and Beautiful shot.

WOW! This rocks! I love the upper cloud deck almost reflected (at least in terms of the 'dead space' in the lower cloud deck, as if you're flying through...well...layers of a complex atmosphere! In-flight photos are always wonderful and exciting, and so full of bizarre potential, and you captured that perfectly here! This is really top notch work.

Beautiful view at 20,000 feet. Everything, even the ominous clouds above, look so fluffy. The bottom layer looks like a soft billowy cotton bed.
