“Invictus” – by Storm Septimus


Second Life artist Storm Septimus has created an installation on LEA, called “Invictus” – based on the famous poem with the same title by  William Ernest Henley; Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell…

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…

Love is all around


No matter what happens, it is often good to be reminded of the good things in life. Like, love. Last Saturday I attended the wedding of Dee and Skip (delinda.dench and skip.staheli) and was honoured to be a guest at the romantic ceremony – Ibiza beach style, dresscode was ‘white’) and it was ever so…

Tell me, how does it feel


‘How does it feel to treat me like you do?’ ‘And I thought I was mistaken, and I thought I heard you speak Tell me, how do I feel Tell me now, how should I feel Now I stand here waiting’ ‘Tell me how does it feel, when your heart grows cold, grows cold, cold’

The greatest love of all


‘I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone’s shadows If I fail, if I succeed At least I’ll live as I believe No matter what they take from me They can’t take away my dignity Because the greatest love of all Is happening to me I found the greatest love of all Inside of…

Bury your fears, bury your dreams


Not quite the cheerful post title ever is it? It is the title of a new art installation at MetaLes, by Selavy Oh, so excuse me for the sombre headline!

Oh, these miss you nights….


‘Midnight diamonds stud my heaven Southward burning like the jewels that eye your place And the warm winds that embrace me Just as surely kissed your face Yeah these miss you nights they’re the longest’

The Gates of Melancholy


The past week I spent quite some time in The Gates of Melancholy,  because it is a gorgeous photogenic location. I took lots of pictures there, but those did not really feature the sim – I used it as backdrop..and to make up for that rudeness I went back and took photo’s for a blogpost….

BE DEUTSCH


‘Remember, remember the 9th of November, broken glass, fire and plot. I know of no reason why our very own treason should ever be forgot’

Fifteen


Seventy-one years ago, she was born Two months after WW2 ended Nineteen years old when she married the love of her life Twenty-eight, a Mom of two, when MS struck Forty-two,  when Alzheimer kicked in Forty-eight, she had left us but we didn’t leave her Fifty-six, when she really had to go Fifteen years now,…

Inked


‘Inked’ is a photo exhibition by Elizabeth Nantes, in Art Gallery Dathuil. It opened last night and while I usually not particularly like photo’s on display in Second Life (I prefer to  enjoy them on Flickr, where I can see them in high resolution and on a big screen) ‘Inked’ is certainly worth a visit.

‘Excuse the mess, but I live here’
