In 1978, when I was a young, innocent, Caity, I had my first crush. The object of my affection was Han Solo – later I learned this was Harrison Ford, but for me in those days he was Han Solo – and I was deeply in love with him. My grandfather bought me a pop-up…

The Plain of Jars
Fitch Lekvoda’s “The Plain of Jars” is…well, that. A plain of jars. Giants jars. Hundreds and hundreds of them. Some half covered in the sand, others standing in the sun. And nobody really knows where they came from or what they mean. “Some now recall the legend of the giant King’s victory banquet. Believing the…
La Digue du Braek
La Digue du Braek, by Serene Footman (known from his popular sim Furillen) and Jade Koltai, is the Second Life version – or interpretation – of a real life location in Dunkerque, France. A road, 7 kilometers long, with a beach on one side and heavy industries on the other side, a wonderful landscape if…
‘Come as you are’ – for Art at the Park
A few weeks ago I got an invitation from Inara Pey, who invited me to display my work at Holly Kai Park – for their monthly exhibition ‘Art at the Park‘. I was hesitant at first, it is no secret I am not a fan of SL photo-works being displayed Inworld. I simply do not…
‘My building in others’ photos – by Huckleberry Hax
Originally posted on What the Huck?:
A while back I posted about my new, 23 prim, six floor building that I’d put on sale on the Marketplace. I wasn’t really expecting it to sell – especially seeing as how it isn’t mesh – but then again it was a labour of love for me and…

It has been too long since I’ve posted about a blogger- and photographer friendly location, but that does not mean there are none! On the contrary, new locations still pop up and in this time of year lots of other locations are changing to the new season – making…
Yasminia
Yesterday I explored a new, to me, place: Yasminia. I had seen so many wonderful pictures on Flickr lately, all shot there – so naturally I was excited to go see it for myself. Yasminia is a truly lovely, rural location. Not too much autumn, but a bit of green too and no snow yet!…
Honest
“Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters” ― Albert Einstein The other night I was inworld, listening to my own playlist on iTunes and posing for some pictures – just for the fun of it. It relaxes me. In the right of my screen was one of…
Hunting Hollows
In the mood for some SL exploring, I ended up at Hunting Hollows. Yeah, it is a Halloween themed sim, but a pretty cool one for just wandering around – even when you are not into Halloween. Upon landing you are offered a folder which contains a flashlight, handy…because the place is quite dark. Very…
Please don’t see me ugly…
When I was 4 years old and went to Kindergarten, I met my BFF in that class (though we didn’t call it ‘BFF’ back then) and her and I were like twin sisters. For years. Over 20 years. We lived two streets away from each-other and spent all our time together. We grew up together…
Maybe that is why
the old man could not remember and didn’t recognize any of his children, nor his wife except the little pup his daughter brought on visits he knew her name and her favourite treats maybe that’s why when the old man went on his last journey the pup, just like that, traveled with him so he…
The Pillars – by Oberon Onmura
Though my Flickr stream may give the impression I am always clubbing or shopping, this is not quite true. Most of my inworld time I spend either helping members of the SL Blogger Support Group and exploring and enjoying new locations and art installations. The past weeks I’v been taking things easy, due to the…

The Rains of Castamere
A few days ago I explored a new sim, designed and decorated by Arol Lightfoot : The Rains of Castamere. A wonderful fantasy world, meant for photographers (as the landinformation states) and you are invited to add your photos to the dedicated Flickr-group!
Binemust, a must!
It has been a bit quiet around Biné Rodenberger, the owner of one of my favourite sims Binemist (which closed a few months ago) but I knew she was busy working on a new sim. So I was thrilled when she invited me over to Binemust, her new place, which took her months to shape…
