Hello everyone. My name is David,but I'll answer to anything affirmative. I am a retired social worker . I have postraumatic stress disorder from too much time as a combat Nurse in Viet Nam.........or was it the 60s and 70s ? Anyway I'm recovering nicelly now.  <br /> I am married for 8-9 years depending on wether you count the Native American ceremony or just the one for the buearu of statistics. I have been blessed with an abundance of feline critters..somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 +/- LOL I have a rescue mission here . I inherited 13 when I bought the place...people have been dropping off strays for 8 years now.My children are grown and gone blessing me with six grand sons. My wife Brenda and i live on a couple acres in the country, in central Ohio which provides me with ample subjects for photog. I use a Canon Rebel XS  but plan to upgrade before I start uploading to Renderosity. I am facinated by fractals and hope to learn how to create them as well as some of you do. I am interested in learning how to render  and use some of the apps I see being used on here. So much to do and so little time...........did I say I love cats?  And Harley-Davidsons .  I have a 2009 FXR  145 hp that's ready for the street or the drag strip............just depends on what day it is ;D. When I'm not riding the bike or working in the yard/garden I try and spend time here. Here's hopeing this is the beginning of a wonderfull relationship with all my friends at Renderosity. Huggs, Dave O
