Lost Island – Bastet’s Paradise


Often I use the Destination Guide to see what is new in SL, and today one of the highlights on my dashboard caught enough attention to TP over and have a look: The Lost Island. Now, I also saw a comment added in the DG’s entry (one can share, comment, like and all that via…

The Sea of Cubic Dreams


Last Saturday The Sea of Cubic Dreams opened, a wonderful art installation by Alegria Studio on LEA25. I had seen some preview pictures already and was keen to visit as soon as it was open! The Sea of Cubic Dreams is the first stage of a larger project ‘Theater Night’s Dream’ which is still in…

Sarawak


Sarawak is the home sim of the lovely, and very talented SL Photographer!, Ermandalee and it has been on my list to visit for way too long! This afternoon, I finally took the time and was happy I did! I had seen so many awesome pictures of this gorgeous, rural, place on flickr (there is…

Taka No Sakura


In between horsing around, helping Ratt getting a new look and doing pics with Coober, I also did some exploring! Busy busy eh! A few days ago I visited Taka No Sakura SLURL, a wonderful Japanese themed sim with some gorgeous spots! I particularly love the Bamboo Forest with soft lightbeams, so relaxing! Very much…

The Colder Water


After seeing Ziki‘s pictures and blogpost on a new place: The Colder Water, I decided to follow her and went to check this sim out. The Colder Water is a gorgeous, somewhat dark, place with 3 lighthouses and most striking: black sand on the beaches and dark rocks. Not your average tropical destination, but that…

AFK and back!


The past week I have not been online, at all. I needed some days without Second Life, no Facebook, no twitter….nothing. It was lovely and much needed, as happens every now and then! I enjoyed the summer weather, been out on my bicycle and on the last day of my internet-break I bought myself a…

Seven


Caitlin Tobias, exploring, taking pictures and ruining homes, gardens and outfits since 4 August 2007. Seven. Years. And still not able to line up objects properly for a picture. Happy Rezzday to me.

Terraform Me


No. You cannot terraform me…..:P Terraform Me is the name of a LL-owned region, next to Linden Estate Services 4, and both sims are amazingly terraformed. A wonderful example of artsy fartsy landscaping, which makes it perfect  places for unreal photoshoots if you take the time to fiddle with windlights and shadows :). When you…

Destination Unknown


Do you know that feeling of just..wanting to run away? Escape? Pack one bag and just leave everything behind, without knowing where you will go? I have that sometimes. For all kind of practicalities, and me being a coward as well, I have never gotten to do this in real life. But then..there is Second…

Garlic Breath


I love Garlic! I do, however, not particularly like a garlic breath..but there are mints for that… This blogpost is not about food though, Garlic Breath is the name of a delightful, Mediterranean, destination, its full name being: Garlic Breath at Melee Island. On top of the rocks you will find lovely little houses, in…

Control+Shift+R


This morning I visited a new installation on LEA: Control+Shift+R, by Wyzard Gynoid. It a massive ‘wire frame grid’ which you can explore via some elevators or just walk around. It is surely impressive, and just asks for taking arty pics using all kind of light and shadows! A wonderful work of art, perfect for…

Rowne


Saturday morning. Coffee. Honey-loops. Peaches. Coffee. And: exploring! I went to visit Rowne. Rowne is a fashion brand for female clothing, a bit business-like style, founded by Fashionboi Landar and Justice Topaz. You can find some more information and pictures/links  to their brand on their own website: rownesl.com (autoplaying music alert!). However, I didn’t go…

Sharing is ….fun!


Yeah yeah, I know one is supposed to say: Sharing is Caring, but in this post I wanted to elaborate a bit more on the fun side of sharing, namely: sharing pictures from within Second Life to outside platforms and..the fun options we have since last April. Note: I am using the LL Viewer, exclusively,…

‘It makes me wonder..’


‘ There’s a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure ‘Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings. In a tree by the brook, there’s a songbird who sings, Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven. Ooh, it makes me wonder, Ooh, it makes me wonder…’ Today was a sad day in…

The Linden Marauder


A few days ago (RL is sort of keeping me busy) I received an email from LL, announcing a new gift for Premium Accounts, a : Marauder. I had no clue what a ‘Marauder’ is, but some googling lead me to believe it had to do with pirate ships or some sort. Well that or…
