During 2013, I started to experiment with close-ups, unusual camera angles, and with cropping and filter effects that might give my pictures the look of the fashion magazines that I longed to emulate.
In the spring of 2013, I stumbled on the 'over-the-head' close-up - taken whilst lying on my bed, looking up at the camera. I liked the results, and took (and posted!) a lot more similar images. They became some of the most popular pictures I had posted up to that time, and they received a lot of favourable comments.
Here is a previously unposted shot from my first 'over the head' shoot, on which I have lavished all the experience I now have with presenting these images.
Love and Kisses to All!!!

2011 was the year I linked up (through Flickr) with a fabulous and supportive group of other t-girls, and so had opportunities to socialize and get out-and-about as a member of this very cool posse. I was also able to participate in photo-shoots in public places, out in the open air.
This particular pic is from a shoot in Richmond Park, during one of my earliest days out with the girls. I think the feeling of liberation and happiness which I experienced on these excursions comes across very clearly in this picture - and in many others from this set. A number of other pics from this shoot are included in my compilation video from that time, "When Girls Do It..!" - which is still available to view right here on my photo-stream!
Love and Kisses to All!

E186.103 di BLS/Serfer appena partita da Melzo Scalo con il TEC per Domo II.
Teoricamente, con il cambio orario che entrerà in vigore domenica prossima, Serfer perderà i TEC per Rotterdam che torneranno come un anno fa a Chiasso passando in gestione a Oceanogate.

Soon a large crowd of former students as well as current ones were gathering for the concert. It was an outdoor concert, so seating was somewhat on the ‘first come—first served’ basis, but there were enough places where everyone could see the stage and hear the performers.
“This is exciting,” Marsha exclaimed. “It’s been since our senior year that I attended a Homecoming concert!”
“Me, too!” Jeffry said, stepping up his voice a bit as the crowd was getting noisy as well. “There’s so much excitement. Could it be that Homecoming and Halloween are on the same night?”
Marsha didn’t hesitate to respond. “Of course! It was a novel idea by whoever planned this. We get to see a good game, hear a concert, go to the dance, then, if there’s time, we can even go trick-or-treating!”
“You’ve got to me kidding me!” Jeffry said. You’re grown up now, and technically with out a costume. What would people think if they saw you like this and you asked for candy?”
“They would probably give the candy to me because of my good looks!”
Jeffry could only smile. He remembered Marsha as she was in high school, so full of joy and beauty. And now…She hasn’t changed much, except add more intelligence and knowledge to the person she was ten years ago.
The wind shifted again, only this time there was a bit of a chill to it. “Seems like the winds are coming from the north.” Jeffry relied on his knowledge of weather from his Earth Science days and recounting how the average person can tell the weather with some simple observations.
Marsha agreed. “You’re right. Good thing I’m wearing my high school jacket!”
As they walked, their strides were almost complimentary, and as their hands made a backswing, Jeffry’s left hand touched Marsha’s right hand. There was a sense of awkwardness at first, but as they continued, they made a game of it, and soon they were holding hands.
“I only wish Sasha could be here. I wonder what her life would have been like.” Marsha said quietly.
“I know. Me, too.”
“And have you seen Robby? I thought he was coming to the concert.”
Just beside the city of Dhaka these brick factories are silently destroying the environment with the clouds of smoke it exhales from the countless number of chimneys. The river Ganges [Buriganga] is already highly contaminated with oil and other industrial waste. The water has turned black and virtually no water being exists in these parts [around Dhaka] of the river.
It is time to turn around and try restoring what we have lost.
Explored!

During 2015, I was able to get out and about with my girlfriends to some interesting locations, and had the chance to have my picture taken against some unusual backdrops.
This picture, taken at St Katherine's Dock in London, is a case in point. As I was simultaneously developing the "Lady Rebecca" mythos, the vessel in the background was represented as Lady Rebecca's very own brand-new ocean-going yacht and floating love palace... gifted to her by her adoring and doting husband, Lord Lyndon.
Toodle Pip!

During 2012, I continued to get out and about with my new girlfriends, and had further opportunities to model my dresses and other outfits in picturesque locations.
This picture of me modelling my red bodycon dress from Diva Catwalk (an all-time favourite of mine) was taken on a day out with Gorgeous Gillian in Syon Park, Surrey. A happy day, when the sun shone and all seemed well with the world...
I particularly liked my matching white heels and handbag!

“Oh, I have that one coin. It rolled toward the front of the cockpit, so in order to keep it safe, I put it in my pocket. Once we got things unloaded, I was going to add it to the pile. Thanks for the reminder.” Heinrich was pleased that Stacy had kept track of everything. If but one gem would go missing, the whole mission would have failed.
“We’re all loaded up!” Cliff announced. Let’s head to the rail station. Marva, try contacting HQ and see what time the train is supposed to be there.”
Marva turned the radio on. “On it, sir,” she said, hopeful that they could make proper connections.
The Team headed down the road toward the rail station. This part of the journey was completed, but then, all of a sudden, their vehicles came to a grinding halt. There was no sound or motion. It was like everything paused in mid action.
“You fool! I told you that we needed to keep back just one of those gems. Even a coin! Just one! But you messed up! I pushed that one coin out of that crate and it rolled perfectly to the cockpit. They wouldn’t have missed it, but then you stepped on it and it stopped rolling just short of where I wanted it to go!”
“Sorry boss.”
“Sorry doesn’t cut it. Now we’re going to have to follow them to the rail station and see if we can’t get them to lose just one of those gems. You know you were supposed to make this mission successful. I hope they dock your pay for this mess up!”
“I’ll try harder, sir.”
“Come on, let’s go. Let’s see if we can arrange our Ghost Train to come first before the regularly scheduled train.”
Hi all! ♥
I want to apologize for my long absence these days. Within 15 days I move to another country to live with a friend and we both are very nervous, busy and stressed! So I am not being able to log in SL, and make a post takes a long time, and I do not have that time. I am so sorry, I promise to be back very soon working as hard as usual!
Big kiss for you all!

During 2017 I began to plan and execute photo-shoots that embodied a specific fashion theme or concept - the forerunners to the modelling I am now doing for my fashion column in 'Transliving' magazine.
The shoot from which this picture is taken was an attempt to capture the essence of my fictional creation: Lady Rebecca Lyndon, Duchess of Basingstoke. I wanted to portray Lady Rebecca's supreme haughtiness, arrogance, snobbery and snootiness - as well as her bottomless sense of privilege, entitlement, style, and her belief in the power of the femme fatale to seduce and control the male of the species.
I was rather pleased with the way that the images of this polka-dot dress - modelled with various appropriate accessories - came out. I felt that the pictures really captured the mood I was looking for.
Toodle Pip!

Jones here. Tom Jones. I was working patrol with Rayann when we met up with Bill at the Beach. He alerted us to one man who appeared to be a little fishy. Too fishy. We decided to investigate.
"Excuse me, sir," I began. "My name is Jones. I need to ask you a few questions."
No response. I cleared my through loudly to get his attention.
"I need to ask you a few questions, sir. What is your name?"
No answer.
"Sir, are you deaf?" I pointed to my ears, thinking that he might pick up on some sign language. If so, my assistant Rayann would step in and interrogate him in sign language. Still no response.
Bill suggested that he may be stoned.
I tapped his shoulder. Yes, he was stoned. He was a garden gnome.
"No wonder," Bill said. "They pop up on lawns in town, but I never would suspect they would end up here."
"Strange thing, too," I commented. "He's pulled more fish than this guy next to me. I wonder what kind of bait he was using."

We're only eight days away to the official start of Spring. I'm looking forward to seeing the first crocus pop up in our yard.
Countdown to Halloween
“Here is that one thing you won’t need.”
“What is it?”
“It’s a tracking device. It tells someone where this cargo container is. But we’ll fool them. We’ll throw it back into the waters and they’ll think the tide shifted it a bit. No one will know.”
“Why don’t we put it inside another container? We made this one up to switch it once we heard there was another container.”
“Good idea! That way, they will think the container hasn’t been moved much. They’ll blame it on the tide.”
Countdown to Halloween
“Captain Skittles and the Skipper calling the Admiral. Do you copy?”
Static.
“Ach, I got to switch channels.”
Captain Skittles looks at the Skipper and winks.
“Captain Skittles and the Skipper to the Admiral. Do you read me now? This is urgent!”
“Come in, Skipper. Whatcha got?”
“Another watercraft heading your way near the target area.”
“Copy. And we’ll get you that pizza. You deserve it. Nice work. Over and out.”
“Can I get a bottle of soda with that pizza?”
Static.

Countdown to Halloween
“Captain Skittles and the Skipper reporting. Intruder ship approaching target area. Repeat, Intruder ship approaching target area. Do you read me?”
Static.
“This is Captain Skittles and the Skipper reporting. Do you copy?”
Static
“Oh, no wonder. Wrong channel.”
Captain Skittles looks at the Skipper but doesn’t say a word. His eyes tell the story.
“This is Captain Skittles and the Skipper. Do you read me?
“Yes, we read you. What’s your status?”
“Intruder ship approaching target area. Do you copy?”
“Yes, loud and clear. Over.”
“Say, can you send out a pizza to my 20? I’m getting hungry. And can you make that a pepperoni pizza while you’re at it?”
Static.
Captain Skittles says nothing.
Jones here. Tom Jones. We patrol the National Enchanted Wildlife Preserve. My partner Rayann and I are making our way to the other side of the preserve. We had just assisted in the capture of one escaped dinosaur, but he is safe and sound in the lab. That task accomplished, we now had to travel down this brick walkway.
But what awaited us was something unexpected and it blocked our path.
Rayann turned to me and asked, "Why does it have to be spiders?"

the damp patch in my study 'to be' is drying out . . . but it is difficult to say how long it will take. I am desperate to move into my own room and set up my computer and monitor.
Thanks to all my stalwart friends who are still visiting . . . I am looking forward to catching up with you as soon as I am able . . .
