L U N A – The story of Humankind


“The year is 2024 — a privately funded team of scientific experts, botanists, and astronauts has been assigned with the task of taking selected specimens from earth in an attempt to colonize the planet known to us only as – L U N A –. Luna is the last hope for the survival of the…

Vanity Poses by Vanity Mirror


One great way to get back on track with my blogging, after being quiet for way too long, is to participate in a blog-challenge. Of course there is always something to blog about, but a blog challenge adds something different, it makes you look for specific topics and can lead you in a surprising direction….

North


One of the places I had been meaning to visit and explore, after seeing many wonderful images on Flickr,  is Kate Bergdorfs North. In the mood for some exploring and taking pictures, I headed over to North this evening and ended up spending almost two hours there! What is North and what is it like?…

The Black Tulip Camera HUD


Yes, that is right. I am going to tell something about a product! And only because I am very excited about it and think every Second Life Photographer will want to have it! The Black Tulip Camera HUD. I have never used a camera HUD in SL before, as I just fiddle along and accepted…

Runs with dog


Lately I have not been online in Second Life much, due to real life work for one, but also the fact that my social life inworld seems to be nihil at the moment. I’ve tried to find new places, meet new people, but that didn’t really work out. So rather than sitting online looking at…

DiXmiX is built by Megan Prumier and curated by DiXmiX Source, the building alone is great to wander around! In this blogpost I will…

Aisling @ Dathuil Gallery of Art


It has been a while since I last visited Dathuil, located next to The Sable Club on the (Adult rated) sim of The Chamber Society and curated by Lucy Diamond and Max Butoh,  so when I heard about a new exhibition I went to go see it. Currently on display is ‘Aisling’, explained as :…

Penumbra & lacrimioare at Berg by Nordan Art


One of my ‘New Years resolutions’, if you can call it that – as I never really do those – is that I want to visit more art in Second Life. All kinds of art. And so this means I will also be going to exhibitions of Second Life  Photography. As I have written often,…

Ten of my favourite SL photos (by other people) of 2016


Originally posted on What the Huck?:
Following on from my post on Tuesday, where I shamelessly self-promoted my ten most favourited own pictures at Flickr this year, I thought I’d look today at some of my favourite pictures of the year by other photographers. Disclaimer: I lay no claim to this being any sort of…

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…

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!…

Suzanne


‘And Jesus was a sailor When he walked upon the water And he spent a long time watching From his lonely wooden tower And when he knew for certain Only drowning men could see him He said “All men will be sailors then Until the sea shall free them” But he himself was broken Long…

Show your Halloween Spirit


Yes. A post about Halloween. By me. Shocking eh? Since I am probably one of the very few in Second Life who does not particularly like or even care about Halloween much. Anyway! Linden Lab announced in a blogpost by Xiola Linden, a call for photos depicting your Halloween Spirit. They will choose some of…
