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:-)

A super capture of this brood, it brings back memories for me when I used to have chickens.

Every one of those hens was just beautiful, and I think there was only one duplicate of breed. Posing for a still shot, they look like a bunch of chickens! LOL! Moving around, they were like a kaleidoscope of feathers and clucking. They're so pretty!

Beautiful photo. Such diversity in color and shape. He must be a very happy, satisfied rooster. Photo brings out a lot here. They are eating, he is standing aside. Keep up the good work! :-)

lord, the flash & your composition & your handling of color make this seem like a big sensuous gathering of exotic, lush throw pillows. It's really a riotous shot, for all its quiet and (surrounding) dark; and the way they just push their way into the feed---they look like fur-balls all balled up in a mass! A truly enjoyable shot, love the colors in the intense flash-lighting (I realize the sun wasn't helping), and Big Shot is caught like the Leader looking over the brood...I love this piece. Fun and really quite beautiful. Happy Birthday Denise! This is rich like her work for sure...

Very varied group of chickens and I notice that Big Shot is letting his ladies eat first. Classy guy! Dana
