At "Laurette's" beginning, and for many years after, my wish--I could call it a fantasy--was to be out in public, dressed fully en femme, and just be accepted as another woman.
This pic illustrates a fulfillment of that wish :)

Side of a house against the (unfiltered) Florida sky. I loved the strong contrast and linear quality. Bradenton, Florida.

Re-posting an old and very dear picture ... even though I can see now that the iPhone processing was a little too hard - and burnt out some of the details ... still - I love it :))

City trip In Amsterdam - July 2021 - Moco Museum
We Are Moco
The Moco Museum focuses on proven artists with a unique vision.
The Moco Museum in Amsterdam is a boutique museum with a wide range of inspiring modern and contemporary art. With artists like Banksy, Jean-Michel Basquiat, JR, KAWS, Keith Haring, Jeff Koons, Yayoi Kusama, Andy Warhol, and more, we offer visitors an unparalleled collection of subversive art in which irony and humor are used to reflect on modern society. A one-of-a-kind experience aimed at a wide audience, a visit to Moco is a true eye-opener.
Studio Irma. Reflecting Forward expresses endless connections to reveal what the future can look like. Studio Irma x Moco introduces Connectivism as a new art movement. Through compassion and empathy, we arrive at a shared understanding. So, in our collective choice to experience this digital immersive art exhibition, we are Reflecting Forward in search of Connectivism.
Brightly colored lights, movement, and music drive you through these interactive, digital spaces: Diamond Matrix, Kaleidoscope, We All Live in Bubbles, Connect the Dots & Universe.
Connectivism stresses that internet technologies like web browsers, search engines, and social media contribute to new ways of understanding and learning in our digital age. - Studio Irma
Banksy. A mysterious British artist known for his humorous and political street art. The Banksy exhibition at Moco contains several of his infamous street pieces, as well a large number of his indoor works, including work on canvas. One of these is his giant 'Beanfield' painting, a beautiful piece that is displayed on the ground floor. An impossible-to-miss eye-catcher as you enter the Banksy exhibition. Other highlights include 'Girl with Balloon', 'Laugh Now' and 'Keep It Real'. The Banksy collection at Moco Museum: come check it out!
The Modern Contemporary (Moco) Museum has made its home in Villa Alsberg, a townhouse overlooking Museumplein in the heart of Amsterdam. The building was designed in 1904 by Eduard Cuypers, nephew of the renowned Pierre Cuypers who designed Amsterdam's Central Station and the Rijksmuseum, which is at the opposite end of the square. This privately-owned residence was one of the first family homes built along Museumplein and retained this function until 1939. Subsequently, the house was let to priests who taught at the Saint Nicolas School in Amsterdam, and later it was converted into an office for a law firm.
No effort is spared to ensure that this breathtaking mansion makes an impact on visitors, adding an extra layer to the Moco experience. There is one small drawback, though: charming as the building is, its compact size does mean it can feel crowded during peak hours.
The Moco Museum is a private initiative of Lionel and Kim Logchies. The exhibited works of art are on loan from their carefully cultivated international network of art collectors. Part of the proceeds from the museum will be donated to charities that are close to the hearts of the initiators.
( A little city trip in Amsterdam
Un petit city trip a Amsterdam )
It was a cold Sunday morning with the wind chill factor at -15F (-26C) when I drove to the end of Sheboygan's South Pier district. After taking a few photos of the ice and mist I started to drive away, then came to a sudden halt to watch this event.
Just across the Sheboygan River from South Pier is a U.S. Coast Guard station. These guardsmen were performing a rescue by ice drill in the subzero weather. I'm very sure that they were glad that the government shutdown was over and that this was a paid activity. Knowing their dedication, they would have been out there even if the shutdown hadn't ended for the moment, hence the "True Grit" title.
What do you do when you have it all? Throw it away and start something new. This is the story of two millionaires who gave it all away to roam the country as a couple of gutter punks. Traveling in railcars and sleeping where they can. This abandoned fuel pumping station makes a grand hotel for the night.

Hi everyone! Before I post some bigger medieval mocs which are really cool btw, I present to you, built for the Monthly Prompt of RebelLUG: True Identity. I'm so dissapointed in the photoquality which is really blurry, but still pretty proud of the edit, figure posing and the road. The prompt was 'Mirror'.
Let me know what you think of it below!
Gandalf - Bilbo.
Biblo - Hmm.
Gandalf - Here, this is about your size.
Bilbo - I can’t take this.
Gandalf - The blade is of Elvish make which means it will glow blue when orcs or goblins are
nearby.
Bilbo - I have never used a sword in my life.
Gandalf - And I hope you never have to. But if you do, remember this: true courage is about knowing not when to take a life, but when to spare one.
Another edition to my 10x10 Lord of the Rings and Hobbit building series. This moc is a recreation of the scene where Gandalf gives Bilbo the sword known as Sting.

A big, beautiful female Argiope trifasciata in her web receiving a potential suitor. I wonder if he got lucky?
Focus on the male for this shot. What fascinated me was that the pair seemed completely unperturbed by the strong coastal winds occurring at this location - unlike me who had to deal with it to try and capture any detail.
Sexual dimorphism is distinct in this species. Female 20 mm body length and male 6 mm body length.

Hello my lovies!

The creators had a vision, one I've never seen anywhere else on the grid. Go check them out, tell me what you think. Fall in love with it and them as much as I did! Thank you Wishy and Mia for the tour! maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/SOCIALITE/109/129/52
********************************
I have a busy month ahead.
Off to visit the wonderful world of Canada by way of Calgary for a week.
Then off to the Lone Star State until I come back with a killer tan!
So, for the next month, there will be limited photos and even less of my face around the grid.
Time for me to touch some grass.
Be good to one another, find time to do something you love and be artistic!
