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 this shot. The lights, reflections, details ... everything is fantastic! I thought I saw something in the window, but I guess not. This is totally realistic!

I agree Bill. I have never gambled a solitary cent there. I have caught a few shows, camped on the outskirts and bush walked, and ate myself into a stupor in those wonderfully cheap buffets! It funny, I love technology and video games etc etc, but to me a poker machine makes the first Space Invaders machine or even Pong look positively space age. I had people call me a cheapskate or said I must against fun...but thats the thing..gambling really holds no fun for me. You couldn't pay me enough to do it!!!!!

Superb night shot

The pristine awning and intact light don't quite go with the rundown image. I guess they want to reassure potential customers a bit too. To get a place looking too decrepit wouldn't be good for business. Excellent detail and POV! Wonderful shot!
