The next to join us on the stage is MISS SL ♛ Romania, Abbie!
---
MISS SL ♛ Romania tells us, "The Zodiac sign i have chosen for this competition is Aquarius. In Latin, it translates to 'Water Bearer,' and it is the eleventh astrological sign in Western Astrology. The reason I have chosen this sign is when researching, I found that I can relate to many of its qualities, even though I myself am a Gemini. My styling is partially inspired by the Dutch designer Iris van Herpen. Her designs are a form of futuristic Avant Garde, made possible by intelligent use of fabrics and 3D printing for some unique styles. I have used the element of water as a base for my outfit, with the water flowing around my skirt. And of course, what water bearer would be caught without something to carry the water in."
MISS SL ♛ Romania is wearing a bodysuit, skirt, sleeves, and leg chains from Ersh. She adds shoes from KC Couture, jewelry from Orsini and Michan, and makeup from both Goreglam and Identity Faces.
Finally, she utilizes water around her skirt, a headpiece, and nails that she has created herself to help complete her ensemble.
Thank you, MISS SL ♛ Romania!
Come join us tomorrow for our opening event in honor of artist Tresore Prada Hawkins! She will have many new, unposted works she created for the show on display along with several others. All will focus on a magical, fantasy theme along with Autumn :)
Tresore has always enjoyed anything to do with being creative in real life and Second Life. In her own words,
"I would like to touch the heart of people through my impression, thoughts, feelings , and I hope my images make you smile and dream a little".
Tresore has the special ability to create these moods, feelings and emotions in others with the time and thought she puts into each picture. She takes the time she needs to perfect the story, mood and feeling she is trying to portray by choosing the perfect pose, colors, clothing and scene. Then she puts it all together at the location within world she thinks will help achieve this goal. Her use of rich, beautiful color, unique texturing and overall composition is truly stunning and inspirational. Come dream with us and enjoy the great music of DJ Feather while doing so!

JOIN ME on my Ten Day New Zealand Workshop 4th - 13th May 2019 £3295

READ my in-depth blog on trip to New Zealand back in September 2018

WATCH my three minute YouTube video of footage I captured in New Zealand September 2018
www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GivMMKV4S8
WOW, WOW, WOW, what a place this is. I arrived here with a friend of mine Ed a couple of hours before sunset and a short fifteen minute walk from the car park had us standing on the shoreline of this utterly remarkable iceberg mountain lake.
Oh my word, this is where New Zealand seriously impresses you. As the sun slowly sunk down the mountains behind us and the last throws of light that lit up the peaks of these incredible mountains finally disappeared to be replaced by a billion stars that shone like precious and priceless diamonds, all that remains is you standing there feeling a little emotional and so thankful to be alive witnessing this quite incredible view.
New Zealand for those of you who have yet to visit and experience the breathtaking views for yourself, is quite rightly at the top of the list of countries to visit with a camera. I have had the very good fortune to have visited the country three times now and I honestly cannot wait to return at the start of May 2019 to run a ten day workshop.
All I will say is that if you have ever had a strong desire to fly to the other side of the world and be transported to fairy tale locations, go and DO IT!!! Either with me on a workshop or by yourself. The most important thing is that you experience it. Wait no longer, book the flight and be amazed by what you will see and experience.

15th - 20th October 2020

The Land of Fire and Ice, Sunrise Over Vestrahorn, Iceland
One of the most pleasurable aspects of being a full time professional landscape photographer who runs workshops in various parts of the world is that I am in the incredibly fortunate position to be in some of the world's most spectacular scenery at the best times of the year and every now and then you come across a view that stops you in your tracks and leaves you almost speechless (I say almost because it is me that I am talking about ;-) )
But what a morning this was back in October 2017 during one of the most beautiful subtle starts to a day I can ever remember. This unusual view of the mighty Vestrahorn was taken from the grounds of our hotel near Jökulsárlón.
I set up the camera along with my clients on either side of me and we all captured this stunning view. The sky initially had a gorgeous hints of pink in it whilst the ocean by contrast was a beautiful shade of blue but the colour suddenly grew and grew until it exploded in colour.
But when you have a view like this, you cannot complain at all when standing there all quiet and respectful and you breathe in the salty air and feel the breeze gently brushing past your face, it certainly has you feel alive and grateful to experience such moments. I hope you all like it.

Dividing streets in the town of Vejer de la Frontera, Andalucia, Spain. 2013
Muso Mouse joins Hazel & Friends at Watership Down, and for the first time, Hazel began to realize how much they had left behind. The holes and tunnels of the old warren had become smooth, reassuring and comfortable with use. There are no snags or rough corners. Every length smells of rabbit—of that great, indestructible flood of Rabbitry in which each one is carried along, sure-footed and safe. The heavy work had all been done by countless great-grandmothers and their mates. Now a new Journey begins again ...

Just occasionally I get tempted to join in, but I always resist. If you use other social media and photography is your thing, chances are you get adverts from editing software providers, regardless of the fact that you're already a paying customer, telling you all about the latest sky replacement tools and the facility to squeeze as many real life unicorns as you can sensibly into your images. I can't help but stop and read the comments sometimes, and am always intrigued by the ones who profess to be completely against editing of any type whatsoever. Among them I'll find the sage counsel of the genius who states there's no need at all, because they always take their photographs correctly in the first place. Do they never get dust spots on their sensors or specks on their lenses? They're obviously far cleverer than I am, so I don't ask them how they manage to avoid low light noise with the ISO rammed up to twenty gazillion, or how they pull back the shadows and drop the highlights, or how they reduce the saturation that cameras often seem to add of their own accord. I'm still not sure how they manage to get a shot looking reasonably in focus throughout the scene at longer focal lengths either. But it seems they can. I just can't be dealing with the plaudits from one side and the vaguely focussed vitriol from the other, as they accuse me of adding too many unicorns under my replacement sky. The conversation is often heated as responses get shorter and shorter, often just reduced to a couple of short words, one of which is unrepeatable. I often wonder whether the "Be Kind" movement needs to intervene at such moments. So I scroll past and look at other peoples' photos instead, with and without unicorns. I tend to prefer the ones without the unicorns, but that's just me. When Topaz put up an advert for their wares, the posturing gets even more intense, even over the utility suite programmes that are only there to enhance file sizes for heavy crops and reduce noise or sharpen blurs.
So yes I admit it. I've never been tempted by the replacement sky option, and I'm studiously avoiding the new "add unicorn" button in Photoshop, but I do edit my raw files. Call me Mr Manipulator if you like, but if such luminaries as Mads, Nigel, Gavin and all the rest of them do, then why on earth wouldn't I? And until cameras are able to see what the human eye does instead of averaging everything out, I don't think there's any other option when you shoot into those big dynamic range scenes. Mostly I blunder through, slowly accumulating half an idea of what I'm supposed to be doing, and gradually I'm getting the hang of how it all works - often with the help of those YouTube gurus who've unknowingly dragged me through the process. Maybe I've learned about two percent of what Photoshop does now. The other ninety-eight could take several lifetimes.
But here's the thing - this shot, taken at sunset on that blustery bluff above Hay on Wye has been barely touched. All I did was crop it to this aspect ratio and slightly twiddle the white balance before frowning briefly and concluding nothing further was needed. Not even a unicorn or two. Those hazy hilly layers before the setting sun spoke for themselves, or so I felt.
What about you? Unicorns or not unicorns? Nobody judges you here.
