Exploring Second Life
I’m a little late to the party with this weeks blog meme, but even without a challenge I’ll always jump on the chance to share pretty shots. Strawberry Singh‘s blog challenge for this week is to share some of our favorite places in SL, so I began looking through my landmarks and thinking about the places I like to visit. This quickly turned into me being nostalgic, and a little sad when I tried to look up a landmark on the map and found that it was no longer on the grid. Like many people I was in love with all of the sims that AM Radio designed, and I’m delighted to know that The Far Away is still on the grid, I will definitely be revisiting it.
Here are the instructions if you’d like to join in:
Meme Instructions: Share 1 to 5 of your favorite places on the grid. I feel like exploring and discovering new places. Share places you think everyone should visit and also tell us why they are your favorites. Don’t forget to leave a link to your post in the comments (on the original post here)!
I was tempted to dig into my old images and find some of my favorites, but instead (with one exception) I thought I’d take a fresh look at some of the places I’ve always enjoyed I typically edit pics because I like to play with color or add filters, but I left all of these untouched except for cropping (again, with one exception) just to see how things would turn out using only windlight settings. These are in no particular order.
Calas Galadhon
Of course everyone knows about these sims, but I have to mention them anyway. I love all of Calas Galadhon. I love to wander around, and look for interesting camera angles, and just sit sometimes and imagine that I’m really in this lovely setting. This pic was in Dimril Dale, and I think (it’s a couple years old so I’m not totally sure) that I used the viewer depth of field and the only extra processing was the vignetting (and probably cropping.) This is one of my favorite images out of the SL pics I’ve taken over the years. I am really looking forward to seeing the sims open back up in September, this is one of the places that the hub and I have had a lot of fun exploring.
