Sandboxes

I'm a big fan of SL's sandboxes :), when you found finally one which isn't too full to build. Anyway. Yesterday I explored a LM, which I got from the ImpPRL group. The IBM Sandbox. And be sure, when you get a notice from this group it's always good to have a look. Did you hear of Spiral Walcher?? An amazing creator, artist and builder. He was the one which built the adorable "Tunnel of Light", with 3 other highly gifted friends. This time they talked about a cartoon world very high in the sky, created by Spiral Walcher. So then, let's check it out! :) Wow, it was a long long flight, but you don't get disappointed. How amazing! Clouds, a little house (maybe his new home ;)), green grass, trees, wonderful work with the light of the sun and also there live animals! A whole little cartoon island lool A cute pig and something what looked like a bear, but really, don't kill me, when I'm wrong! If you want to find this place in the sky, wear a flight gadget and then up to the sky :) So in around 2504m you will find it and no fear you can explorer it. It is soooo cute! :)

But this isn't all! On the way to the cartoon island I found an interesting place. Well, maybe place isn't the right word ;) better I should say a floating labyrinth. Well, I found it per accident lool Like the most places or things which I find in SL :). But when you are on your way to cartoon island, then you shouldn't miss this gorgeous built platform. Colin Fizgig created a labyrinth and in the middle it looks like the Eiffel Tower of Paris. Amazing!! He is also well known for his creation "Blue Dragon".


Up in the sky in around 638m, there it is..a lovely made labyrinth with signs, which tells you which way is the right one :) very good help, because when you know me, I get sooo easily lost! :( Go there and follow the path.....and let me know, how long you needed to get to the tower :)! Maybe we should make a score board looool

In the eye of the storm..

I went thru my Feeds and one of my favorite blog's mentioned "StormEye". So I had to check out :) I think, I'll never understand how people can create such wonderful and amazing places. And I'm really thankful that they share them with us "normal Sl residents". At "The Aho Museum" on the NMC Campus, includes a bright range of art, presents an encyclopedic showcase of virtual art forms and includes sculptures of all kinds and so on :) Well, I only visited the "StormEye", which looks like a pipe or a tube. At the entry you recieve a notecard with all the necessary instructions, so that you can fully enjoy your visit. Go thru the portal, grap a umbrella and climb up the stairs :) you will be fascinated, like me.
It begins like a walk at a sunny afternoon, but then (for this you got the umbrella :)) a storm is coming in. The clouds get more and darker :( Thru the sound effects you really feel like you would standing in the middle of the center of this storm. Rain starts and finally you are happy you got the umbrella :) "StormEye" is a new installation by Douglas Story and Desdemona Enfeld. And definitly a must be! Go there and enjoy the sounds and the effects of "StormEye".

Time can fly!!!

How fast the time goes by, when you met a interesting lady in SL :) OK, I'll met a lot ladies, but this one caught my fully interesting...Of course, you have to be very carefully who you meet and what you tell them. But really, in our first conversation I thought we know us since ages. Well, this doesn't happen often and I'm sure a lot of SL residents will be the same option. I forgot all, when I was with her...But! I will continue with my projects in SL and Photoshop no worries guys :) I only wanted to let you know I'm still alive loool So let us see in SL and have a great weekend!!! Pictures will follow :)

The Dark Side of Second life...

... isn't always bad. Atrum Votum, a dark side touched Sim of SL. Atrum means "Dark Storm". You shouldn't be disgusted about the BDSM, Gor or Gorean things at this place. It is indeed a romantic place for lovers of all different preferences. And it is worth a visit ;) And it doesn't mean I'm Gorean or BDSM fan lool I only had a look ;) only for taking wonderful pictures..You don't believe me? Hmm, well then you should go there and have a look. The place is made with love and a good eye for details.

The B/W Art Gallery Streamlife

I'm so fascinated about SL art, that I always love to visit some galleries, vernissages or exhibitions. At the B/W Art Gallery Streamlife, owned by Life Charron, a SL and RL photographer, I found my next favorite work ;) Till 14th of February you have the option to get a closer look of Monroe Snook's art "The heart of the matter". Monroe owns the Studio 33 Photography and her passion for wonderful moments to catch them on a picture, is amazing.
Come, before it is too late!

Oh, don't worry lool I still bought it! I think, I need a bigger house loool ;)

My visit at Drottningholm Palace Grand Opening Masquerade

As you can remember, besides on the calendar, I mentioned the big Grand Opening of the Drottningholm Palace - The Royal Court of Sweden. Oh, it was great. A new expierence. I never were interesting in roleplay in the last months, since I started SL. I thought SL IS still roleplay, but to play a roleplay in the roleplay, well yes, this was very new for me ;) So I got an invitation and my company had important RL things :( But nothing can hold me, when it comes to be nosy ;) And so I attend all by myself at this event. I don't regret anything. I was very amused. We all had to come to the center in front of the court, then we got our instructions and they told us the event program. All started with a impressing firework at the garden. Maybe I should say, all plays in the 18th century. Where the girls were miladies ;) and the guys are marquess. Well, maybe I shouldn't tell you, that I spent the whole day to get a adorable mask and to get the suitable costume for this event ;) Who said Rococo and Baroque are dead?? It is still alive at the Drottningholm Palace. If you don't believe me, go there, wear the OOC visitortag and try to find your role in this play ;) After we got to listen to a wonderful opera, the hunt started! loool Well, I don't know why, but in the last days it seems the hunt is hunting me :) All started with the "Kiss Hunt", I'm sure you heard about it. I would love to see you hunting around 200 lips in different stores on different Sims loool It is indeed, very stressful! But back to the event ;) before I get lost and end up 3 sites further on my blog loool I'm sure you wouldn't be very amused ;) So the hunt, after ONE, YES! We had to find on the whole Sim only ONE little swan! :( Now you can imagine, who didn't find it! Right. It wasn't me! lool OK, after this we were invited to the "Lustgarden" Hmm, well, for my ooption it sounded naughty, but still I was too nosy to figure out what it is. Nothing to worry ;) You have your clothes on ;) It is only a special name for this place, were we danced and got finger food. So when I count all together, it was an impressive event. Which I would love to attend again ;) I still hope, I'm on the invitation list ;)
