photostar Bio

My baby...luv my Jeep 4x4.  Do I take it rock-crawling and off-roading?  Hell no... No way, no how......  




I have been working with 3D digital programs for about 6 years time.  My first experiences with the world of 3D digital art were Terragen and a terrain generator program called World Machine.  After learning Terragen, I moved on to Bryce where my major interest in creating landscapes, SciFi and interior space renderings now lies.

Other programs which I experiment with and use are Vue7, Apophysis and Incendia.  Postwork tools I usually use for enhancing the original renders are PSP Pro X, PhotoScape 3.3, Paint.Net, MGI PhotoSuite and FastStone Image Maker.  Occassionally I also enjoy taking photos with my Nikon S52 Digital camera.  Here at Renderosity you will find works of mine using all of these mediums.

As an artisan, I have always had a deep love and respect for architecture, especially modern and future design development.  You will see that reflected in some of the 3D renderings here in my gallery.

Originally, I'm a Northeastern United States native (anthracite coal region)....half Welsh, half Bavarian in ancestry.... and live some 1,400 feet (about 475 metres) above sea level in the Appalachian mountain chain  along with my Shih-Tzu, Max and my cat, London.  However, I prefer the lure of the beach and ocean and especially love the Chesapeake Bay region of the East Coast.  

Take a few minutes to look thru my gallery and leave a comment or two if you like.  Everyone here at Renderosity is unique in their work and individual abilities.   Personally speaking, I have been blessed with the friends I have made from around the world and for being a part of this community for the past 5 years.  

___________________________________________
On a side note, I appreciate those who have made me a favorite artist and those who have favorited any of my images.  It would be greatly appreciated, however, when making any individual a favorite artist, that you comment now and then on their work.  Many here like to 'collect' people for their own statistical purposes and never acknowledge an individual's work with a comment;  especially those who have never uploaded an image or render themselves.  If you favorite an image of mine, then leave a comment posted to that particular work in the galleries.   If you add me to your favorite artists, then stop by once in a while and leave a comment to my work.

Description


Thought I would share my profession with all of you. This is a photo capture of the instrument where I am organist...in the Reading, PA area. Quite a drive for me a couple of times per week but well worth the salary $$$$$.

The largest pipes are over 18 feet in height and about 16 inches in diameter. Behind the pipes which you see are approximately 2,000 more ranging in height from about a few inches (the size of a well-worn pencil) to 9 feet.

For those of you who are afficionados, it is a Wicks instrument consisting of 21 straight ranks on 2 manuals (keyboards) and 32 note Pedalboard and was installed in the very modern looking church in 1979.

At present day instrument construction costs, it is worth over $650,000. Pitch range is from 32' up to a IV rank Mixture and there is a very powerful Trompette 8' on the Great (lower) manual.

The photo (taken with a Nikon S52 digital camera) was integrated with PhotoScape 3.2 which included the frame, lens flares and linen-look background.

Thanks for viewing and any comments.

Beautiful shot, I love pipes...my mom played organ but I was never gifted with that talent.

e-brink ()  posted at 7:29PM Sat, 11 October 2008

Impressive, Keith! Must take quite a lot of skill to master that instrument. Even Sherlock Holmes only had a "Two-pipe problem".

DarkStormCrow ()  posted at 7:50PM Sat, 11 October 2008

Excellent!

amota99517 ()  posted at 8:31PM Sat, 11 October 2008

Wow! This is an absolutely gorgeous shot. Your passion for your music really shows in this capture.

Vik9740 ()  posted at 9:13PM Sat, 11 October 2008

Hi Keith wonderful work full of surprises sweet sunshine to you warm hug, Linda

Richardphotos ()  posted at 10:12PM Sat, 11 October 2008

the complexity of a pipe organ daunts me to ever even try to learn, I know it would only be a pipe dream!! I am impressed and in awe of your talents Keith

Homus_Artistic ()  posted at 11:03PM Sat, 11 October 2008

Very nice image. It really makes the music flow

beachzz ()  posted at 11:59PM Sat, 11 October 2008

Wow, I knew what you did, but seeing these pipes is so impressive; I've heard the sound and it's simply incredible. There's a new pipe organ not far from me and next time there's a concert, I'll be there. Wonderful shot!!

ledwolorz ()  posted at 1:50AM Sun, 12 October 2008

Wonderful work.

melevos ()  posted at 2:16AM Sun, 12 October 2008

EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!

HoboBo ()  posted at 3:26AM Sun, 12 October 2008

Very nice shot, Keith! In my previous life, my father and I had a small organ building company here in Sweden - we even built two very small organs in USA :)

Heathcroft ()  posted at 3:59AM Sun, 12 October 2008

Bloody hell, Keith. Just as well you don't have to take this monster to gigs! I once saw Ememerson Lake and Palmer in Amsterdam Concert Hall circa 1972 and Keith Emmerson played 'Pictures at an Exhibition' ona beast like this. Really knocked me out. All credit to you for mastering such a fine and complex instrument. And I like the treatment you gave it (you just cant resit using those lens flares though can you??) Dave

carlx ()  posted at 4:52AM Sun, 12 October 2008

Excellent imagination!!!

faroutsider ()  posted at 9:37AM Sun, 12 October 2008

What a multi-talented person you are! Excellent pic of a wonderful instrument.

lucindawind ()  posted at 9:46AM Sun, 12 October 2008

wow Im totally impressed with what you do ..as well as your artwork ! this is wonderful art ....and how I envy you being able to play such a grand instument ! :)

allnaydi ()  posted at 9:57AM Sun, 12 October 2008

Great image and fascinating instrument Keith. Mastering it, is definitely awesome all by itself. Thank you for sharing :)

MagikUnicorn ()  posted at 1:39PM Sun, 12 October 2008

WOWO REAL BEAUTY

LBJ2 ()  posted at 5:34PM Sun, 12 October 2008

Fascinating shot, Keith. Cool to see this.. i remember your profession from earlier on. Great info on the technical part. A fantastic organ for sure. It is fascinating to experience an organist play.. Because of the volume of the pipes.. but also because you use both hands and both feet at the same time.. That takes some practice for sure. Great post.

grafikeer ()  posted at 7:34PM Sun, 12 October 2008

Well...I never would have guessed you were also a musician,and what an instrument to master!Love the effects you've added in postwork Keith,makes for a very artistic image!

Chipka ()  posted at 10:06PM Sun, 12 October 2008

WOW. So you're an organist among other artistic things! Great! I love this image. I know absolutely nothing about music, except for the fact that I like it, and your image and text accompaniment is top notch in my book. Cool stuff, great image!

Mad-Mike ()  posted at 10:52PM Sun, 12 October 2008

Hey this is very fantastic! and how mesmerizing to the ears!!! wonderful to know this Keith, and a very cool post work job!

schonee ()  posted at 7:00AM Mon, 13 October 2008

WOW Keith this is a beautiful shot....WHat a cool job to have... I know you must love it and that is what it is all about. Thanks for sharing

Steff_7 ()  posted at 7:35AM Mon, 13 October 2008
