What I Like #22
September 22, 2011
Linden Labs just had a four day “Fashion Week” of their own with fashion “experts” invited to blog and host the forums, posting topics and encouraging conversation. I was one of the people invited to participate. In the other Second Life social media communities there was a bit of discussion about what makes someone an [...]

Less is more. People say that all the time and we all know it’s not true. More is more when you’re talking apples and apples. More apples are more apples and more rain is more rain. But when we talk style, design, art and composition, we are talking apples and aesthetics. Less stuff is more [...]

Some of my favorite photos are ones that seem incomplete. I have highlighted many pictures over the last few weeks that are cropped in ways that lead us into participating in the photography by completing the picture. When I saw the photo from LYRiK Fredriksson, I loved her confidence in us. She respects her viewers and [...]

With the many advances in photography in SL, those with slower, older computers sometimes get discouraged. I think, though, technology can only go so far. It can give you high resolution, shadows and light sources. It cannot style your outfit. It cannot frame your picture. It does not choose the angle, the content, the lighting, [...]

Generally I can recognize a Second Life photo pretty quickly. The other day, however, while exploring Flickr, I saw an SL photographer who had mixed in some real life photos of ducks with her SL shots. My late brother-in-law painted duck stamps so whenever I see pictures of ducks, I look a little closer. That’s [...]

I hope readers find these biweekly collections of outstanding photos from Second Life photographers and bloggers to be a source of inspiration. A lot, maybe most, of the work I highlight is better than my own. I don’t get discouraged by their artistry, though. For me, they are an inspiration and challenge to do better. [...]

Since my last column, I have worked away creating a series of tutorials on the photography basics in Second Life. This spate of tutorial writing was prompted by recent changes to the Windlight interface that had lots of us scratching our heads while we tried to adapt. I am going to claim a point of [...]

Since I deleted all my “What I Like” bookmarks when I finished last Thursday’s column, I have collected fifty more to winnow down to a manageable sum for this one. Don’t get me wrong, I am not complaining. It’s wonderful that there are so many people with so much talent sharing their creativity, imagination and [...]
