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:-)

Good thing this curious critter doesn't have horns. A swing of the head to get a better look through one eye can be quite devastating. I've almost been there and am thus very careful with these 4 hoofed beings. As fo the photo - nice job! Shows the lay of the hair very well. The whorl between the snout and eye marks where the hair changes direction. Keep up the good work! :-)

I like your focal point on her face. Nice use of dof! And those long, white eyelashes. My word! She was fun to hang out with. :)

I love cows. If only I could have a parcel of land and have one or two. Plus some chickens. I love to watch chickens. ;c) Beautiful portrait of a grand animal.

This brings back childhood memories of when I spent summers on my God Mother's farm. Thanks Bill and my favorite two things was the giant bull and the outhouse. I was a strange kid!!!
