I'm not sure what all to say about myself, I live in Ann Arbor, Michigan (USA) and work as a graphic designer/computer technician for a print shop. I have a BS in Historic Preservation, but wasn't willing to go on for a Master's Degree, nor was I interested in teaching, so I found another career. I discovered Bryce way back when version 1 came out, but I didn't really get serious about the program, or 3D art in general, until a few years ago. When I'm not in front of the computer, I'm either making costumes or wearing them to a renaissance festival, or building a new rock-sculpture, or possibly wandering with a camera.
When I'm not making something, odds are I'm reading from my far too wide range of interests: Astronomy, Cosmology, Physics, Archeology, Anthropology, History, Current Events, NASA (of course) and anything else that happens to catch my attention. It's really hard to find enough time to do all of the things I want to be doing! What drew me to Renderosity is the many excellent artists who continue to inspire me to push myself as an artist. More recently I've added a selection of stuff to another online gallery location:http://nefariousdro.deviantart.com/Â

Great fun! There is a flat rock just off the side of the road on my way to work that has about a dozen of these balancing scultures.

Oooooo - garlic and peanut marinade? I'm gonna have to try that one - sounds delicious! You certainly seem to have become the Jedi Master of balancing things! I like the way things are stacking up (sorry, couldn't resist). Really a rock-solid photo (ouch, another one) you have here. If I would have tried this, I probably would have ended up with a broken toe from the fourth rock up falling on my foot. Too cool!

Amazes me that the largest rock is seldom on the bottom of one of your stacks. =) skill, I tells ya, skill!

Rocks that knock my socks off! Marvelous.

This does take quite a bit of skill. I'm always amazed at these and have yet to try any on my own, but oh well! You have one of the perfect ways to relax. Gravity and friction: there's a lot to be said for that! NASA is thinking of new ways to employ gravity in space exploration, and it's high time they did so, since the soon-to-be-retured Space Shuttle fleet is largely useless in terms of actually going anywhere! But that's a long and senseless ramble. This is a great shot!
