Sail Away With Me

Sail Away With Me

This post is a bittersweet one for me.  Originally and at its core, this post is announcing that I will be out of town for the next couple of weeks, so I won’t be able to post anything during that time.  It will be strange not being able to express myself through Second Life photography, but I think it’ll also be a good break.

I was also going to make this a post celebrating Pride Month, since I will be out of town until July.  With the events in Orlando over the weekend, though, this post turned a bit more mournful.  I hope that all of you will stay safe, and enjoy Pride Month peacefully.

Surf’s Up!

Surf's Up!

N4RS has been one of my favorite furniture brands for years because of their high-quality mesh and animations, and today they released a great new surf board at Collabor88.  It’s available in three different versions – a PG version that has individual poses (like the one I used for this photo) and cuddles for couples, and two adult versions – one for male/female couples and one for male/male couples.

There haven’t been many swimsuits that have come out yet this year, but I’m wearing one from Faboo. that is in a gacha machine at The Jersey Shore right now.  I’m also wearing new jewelry from BENJAMINZ, [The Plastik.], and [ kunst ] that is available at The Chapter Four and The Liaison Collaborative.

Vision In White

Vision In White

I recently discovered just how much fun it can be to decorate (mostly) monochromatic rooms with little pops of color here and there.  For this photo, I decided to take it a step further and do my outfit in the same color palette as the decor.  I’ve always loved decorating with plants, so I thought that some green pops, in this case both from the plants and from the absinthe fountain, would be perfect.

The true centerpiece of this photo, though, is the awesome bench that N4RS released at U L T R A.  I recently became an official blogger for N4RS, who has long been one of my favorite furniture stores in Second Life.  In the last couple of years, their mesh work has become so sophisticated to go along with their excellent animations.

Starry Night, City Lights

Starry Night, City Lights

The Event 6 Republic just opened yesterday, and has all kinds of great stuff from many creators, themed around two of the world’s most iconic cities – London and New York.  I spent way too much there, so there will be a few posts drawing heavily from the event.  This photo started out as a much bigger set that I was putting together, but then I realized that I had a much better photo staring me right in the face, and ended up with this.  I used to live in New York City, and can remember many nights when I sat in the living room of my apartment with the moonlight streaming in, trying to figure out what I needed to do.  This photo captures some of that feeling that I had back then.
