A MEMBER AND PROUD OF IT ---
The Biggest Group! (fashioned after the original biggest group)
If you've never visited my photostream before, prepare to be dazzled...

I take pictures of stuff nobody else cares about...or...wouldn't even ~dare~ to try...

I explore wooded and wasteland areas and always find something that stimulates my warped photographic brain...

Sooooo...hop in the '56 Dodge and enjoy the show...

I hope you enjoy my photos, as you're seeing the world through my eyes...

Don't forget!!!! Wherever you go, whatever you do, the trees are watching YOU!!!

My cameras are used mostly according to their strengths. Of course, there is always room for overlap.
Nikon D3000.....This camera does mostly the inside pics.
Fujifilm FinePix S1500.....This is my sunny day woods camera.
Nikon Coolpix L18.....My Hammonton Lake camera.
Kodak EasyShare C713 Zoom.....My street hiking camera.
Kodak EasyShare ZD710 Zoom.....My cloudy day woods camera.
Vivitar 3315.....This one is a thrift shop find. I still haven't found a use for it.
Pictures processed through...
Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0
Nova Development Photo Explosion
Microsoft Picture-It 10

"How funny that it all started becuase we drove identical vehicles!
I love to look through all of Backy's nature and car photos. It's always fun to see what new and interesting things he's discovered flotaing in woodland stream, or parked outside the local Wal-Mart. Not to metion that sweet ride he's got out in his driveway. A great photographer and among my favorite Flickr-ians. Nice work!"30th May, 2009

Its like taking a trip to a time we all enjoy...and only BACKY can show this to us...
This Is a rare "treat" compiled by some-one who obviously knows and loves what hes talking about ...
My personal thanks to a friend whos always at the tip of my curious mind when It comes to photos from "New Jersey"

"Billy is one of the nicest and most down to earth person i met on flickr..he's humble and says what he thinks. to me he's a regular guy, not trying to be some hot shot..I feel in love with his adventures long ago..i too share his hobby of bottle digging. i know the thrill of the find..and the weird obsession one gets of never wanting to stop digging them up..(i was a member of "The bottle diggers of American" for many years back in the early 80's...( yes, there's a bunch of us out there)..billys work goes way beyond bottle digging. he has a eye for a beautiful picture..all worthy of frames or post cards..Keep digging Billy, them old bottles seem to be treasures waiting for you to find them before nature destroys them..In your pictures they seem to smile and pose for you...Like They know they found a home."

"I think this guy is secretly my dad - my parents dont know where my lust-for-rust (heh) comes from - I look at all the amusing pics and captions and think "this is like me in 15 years" (im 27 so I hope thats a compliment) - keep snapping pictures of weird things!"

road_less_trvled says:
"Billy's photstream is a hidden treasure. Just as the everyday "object d'art" he digs relentlessly out of the ground, so Billy digs relenetlessly at the world around him with his camera and unique vision that is a combination of comedy, documentary and surrealism. He is an underdeveloped talent which I expect with time will shine brighter and clearer as he hones his skills. Every image is an adventure; every adventure, an image. One never knows what he will find or uncover or "dis"cover around the next bend in the woods, or what he will "re"cover from one of his older photos laying around. He makes the mundane fun and interesting and I am proud to call him a contact anad a Flickr friend."

"Billy May be a noob (like myself) but if you;re looking for inspiration in what I call "every day nature", then you'll want to look here. What we might see as a simple leaf, without Billy's point of view, is just that. WITH his point of view he reminds us of not only of the beauty in every day nature and things but inspires us to take a second look at the things that surround each of our own worlds. Billy, when I save up enough money to replace the camera that was stolen from me I'm going to love sharing with you and even learning from you. You sharpen all of our focus's (s that a word? lol) to appreciate what we all to often see with dead-pan eyes and not a second thought. Thank you for that."
