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:-)

Outstanding Pet portrait and wonderful postwork Bill!!

You seem to have mastered this technique very well, Bill. And Mandy looks SO darned cute in this photo. Really leaps out at the viewer. I'm trying to figure out how you do the picture frame in the image - curved and all, with Mandy poping out of it. Makes one wonder what they will come up with next! With your imagination running wild, you caould come up with all kinds of situations for this type of image manipulation/creation. Keep up the good work, Bill! :-) PS - will post another floating object this evening. :)

A cute little gal & an interesting technique. The next step is to turn this into a 3D image - it would really jump off the page...
