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:-)

Wonderful capture! I'm impressed with your blues, especially considering the glaring light that day. Gorgeous!

Heavenly. A masterclass in composition too!

Nice photo, Bill. It looks SO peaceful. The bird adds a little counterpart to the oyster boat. There are so many hues of blue in this photo, and then the green to the right adds some difference. I like the names in Washington state - must be old Indian names. Oysters, reminds me of New England Clam Chowder, something I enjoyed, but can't get here. Makes me a bit home-sick. Keep up the good work! :-)

OH! what a fabulous view and photo, Bill!! Wonderful colors on the sea. When my father digged out a biiig hole for the septic tank 40 years ago, We found alot of these oyster shells on the bottom of it. Like someone has lived there and had the kitchen waste Lying there.

So tranquil and calming - I can almost hear the gulls, and waves lapping against the rocks. What a lovely photo, Bill!
