Bill is one of the most generous people on flickr. He shares his travels, his view of nature, his beloved family...and most of all his comments/awards/invitations. Bill's invitations have opened new groups and contacts to me that I might have missed if not for his generosity. Thank you, Bill!

Bill is a good man who loves his wife and kitties. With all that love you can't get much better than that. I found this poem on a poetry website that just says it all. It reminded me of Bill so much I just had to post it here: by James Metcalfe ( I assume he's the person who submitted it to the poetry site) A photograph is more than just A gift to bring or send. And more than just the likeness of A relative or friend. It is a kindly greeting and A memory to hold. Of happy times and pleasant things. However new or old. It is a mirror that reflects Companionship and cheer. And now and then the wistfulness That turns into a tear. A photograph is something to Adorn a desk or wall. Or carry in a pocket and Display to one and all. It is a faithful portrait The smile that friendship shares To add its sunshine and to show That someone really cares.

I first noticed Bill through some of his shots featuring his beloved cats and this fellow cat lover wanted to know more. I went to check his photostream and liked what i saw.......Bill is a very talented photographer who has a passion for photography. He is very charming, amusing, caring and always leaves me comments no matter what.......something i highly regard. I always do the same for him too. Bill is a highly travelled person along with his wife, Mavis, and i throughly enjoy looking at the places where he has travelled. I'm also most envious of the birds that visit him in his wonderful garden. Bill is a pure joy and i'm happy that he's my friend. You rock, Bill!!!
