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:-)

Love the decay look Bill! .. Looks excellent!! Of the three you sent, the weird one, I didn't like, but you could maybe work that one out! lol The others look great.. And thanks for the nod... :-) Trouble with Photoshop Elements id it is what it says! Only elements of the 'full' program, so I can't do some things I'd like.. Keep finding small things though! lol Good one mate.. Rob

Excellent digis! Makes me think of a SciFi movie where they discover this plane and they find out it is haunted

When I first glimpsed this thumbnail I thought it was driftwood.. wow impressive work.. I have done the same with the free trial downloads fun to play for free, but my daughter always uses up my days haha oh well good to see her creating too. Have a lovely day!

What a wonderful result! I still think the one in back looks like it was done in crewel embroidery or needlepoint, but I'm okay with rust, too. :D Nicely done!
