We recently experienced a very heavy, snow, it was so incredibly beautiful here. I took many photographs and then put them together in this video.

Relaxing winter images and music. Interesting texture, light, shadows and shapes, with the snow, frozen fluidly, against the branches.

Torley has released a new album, Holidium and I selected a beautiful piece, Crystaleyes, from that to accompany my images.

Need a place for some comfortable conversation?

A Second Life campfire might be just what you need for a comfortable conversation. It’s nice to have a spot to go with friends that is conducive to conversation. I’ve scouted for you 6 excellent spots. They are based on beauty, and comfort.

A fond memory for me is when I was dating my husband and we would go on dates in Second Life. One spot I wanted to share with you that isn’t there anymore stands out for me in particular because it was so beautiful and sitting in his arms in front of the fire was very romantic.

Keep in mind that you can adjust your scene with your environment editor to get that sunset as perfect as you want it. Take pictures of your time, you can share it with friends when someone says they need a spot to go to or as a way to revisit good memories.

Do you have a Second Life campfire spot that you would like to share?  I’d love to go see it, please share it with us.

Straylight Campfire

This is a place where I love to explore.  I am so glad there is a campfire there to sit by.

This is a spot Torley and I found recently, the landscaping there is definitely top notch. I particularly like to view across the water to the waterfall, you can’t see the waterfall in this picture.

Here is a super campfire with food! I had a hamburger. Touch the campfire and it drops down a menu for you to choose what you want.

The Bluffs Nature Preserve and  Center for the Arts

Oh, this is a sentimental one too! ZeroOne was the first to believe in my sculpture skills and offer me an exhibition, but it became more than that, he is a friend and when I need a bit of quiet or want to attend a good music event this is a spot I often head to.  It’s sprawling grounds, wonderfully landscaped with a big event center designed with a lodge sort of feel.

Spectacular Atmosphere and Artistry by Kazuhiro Aridian

The excellence level surely is higher than ever in Second Life. I recently had the pleasure of being pointed to a build by Kazuhiro Aridian and my socks were knocked right off.

It was later in the evening at my house, things were quiet, I had a bit of music going and feeling relaxed and ready to do some exploring in Second Life, one of my favorite pastimes.  I never go in for a good explore with any expectation because it can be a crap shoot. Spiral Walcher passed me a landmark and said I needed to stop by this place, so I did.

Upon rezzing in, I wasn’t sure where I was, I was a bit disoriented so I just stood still waiting for it to come in to focus and as the texture loaded, what unfolded itself to me was truly magical. These are the good things in Second Life, these kind of experiences, the discovery. I stood there alone, and looking above myself I witnessed these beautiful seadryke engaging in a fluid dance that tantalized all my senses. I do hope you have an opportunity to go and experience this for yourself.

Bravo to Kazuhiro, you create with excellence.
