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:-)

beautiful trees and capture of Lucinda

What a terrific picture! I love Lucinda's smile, and you've got a very nice profile shot of her. The trees are gorgeous. Those were so interesting, with all the little burls. Love this! :*

It's great to actually see Lucinda! A lovely picture both of her and those ginormous tree trunks.

Beautifully composed image and sounds like y'all had a wonderful day!

What a nice portrait! She look so tiny by those tall trees (and those trees in comparison were small compared to some of the others in that park...) What a great day we had!

Very nice capture!!!

Great shot of your friend among the trees. I like the scale you chose - large enough to highlight the largeness of the trees, but not so large as to make the human figure pale to insignificance. Sounds like you had a great day...

So that's what happened to her! Another one we don't see much of anymore. It is a great portrait.
