Default Picture Thread to Honor MrBill

It has been just over 5 years now since MrBill passed away. He was very active on the C5 forum and posted many threads pertaining to photography and other Corvette topics. He helped me with several questions concering how to take better photos and I still use the Photomatrix software he reccommended to me. His passing was a tremendous loss to the Corvette Forum. To honor MrBill I wanted to post a picture I shot last week in Zion National Park. I hope he would like it as I used some of the suggestions he gave me. If you have a favorite photo of your Corvette please consider posting it. Thank you.

He was a great person & asset to the Corvette community here and a great photographer. I still have a couple of his photo-vids he did for us on my computer. He is most certainly missed.

I didn't take this but I think he would have liked it. It's one of my favs.

Thanks for the thread, and the memory of a great Guy who I called a friend. In his memory here is one of his photographs.


One of Bill's finest

Hard to believe it has been five years since MrBill's passing. I always enjoyed the pics he took and especially his annual compilation of member's cars in a cool video.
