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:-)

And, lest we forget, the Devil Wears Prada. Stellar bit of color, contrast, geometry and angle confluence in this remarkable shot, Bill.

I was browsing through the Prada store the other day. The photo with all the shells tied to fishing wire was just out the front of it actually.

This is a perfect angular composition..fancy catching that from a bus..Brilliant! Sorry to disappoint you, Bill, but Agatha is Spanish and has nothing to do with the brand Prada..she is famous for her green politics as well as her whacky clothes and other designs. But thankyou for the ad! See more about Agatha Ruiz de la Prada at http://www.agatharuizdelaprada.com/ This is a SUPERB pic.
