Nature is so powerful, so strong. Capturing its essence is not easy - your work becomes a dance with light and the weather. It takes you to a place within yourself.
~ Annie Leibovitz

Thank you for all the favours, lovely comments, group invites and awards they are truly appreciated. ♥
We were lost. While the driver consulted his map along the side of the road in Gloucester I jumped out to take this one quickly. Would you believe this borders a mall parking lot? Groceries and shampoo were being purchased not 1000 feet away.
For me, fashion is not just about following trends; it’s a way to express your unique personality and style here in Second Life.
That said, I love experimenting with different colors, patterns, and textures. So, when choosing a dress, I make certain that I genuinely adore every detail of it as well as how it makes me feel when I put it on. This [Essence] Sofia Dress checks off all of these boxes with its quality design and styling
touches.
This Sofia Dress Set comes with both the dress itself as well as sexy platform heels. The dress comes with a HUD that provides you with 25 colors to choose from. It fits Legacy , Bombshell, LaraX Reborn, and Reborn Waifu mesh bodies.
You will find this marvelous Essence Sofia dress at the Swank Around the World August Sales Event:

A free day today and I felt drawn to this landscape again.
This is quite a high and exposed site but today's weather was mild and calm, so I was able to balance these two beautiful rocks on their fine end points.

Although it's mid-winter here in the Southern Hemisphere I wanted to post a summer image from my travels last year. I love revisiting my files from England & Europe and hope to finish processing many RAW shots I still haven't got around to doing
Have a wonderful weekend everyone :-)

This is ONE pretty poodle we met at our groomer's today! She was SO friendly and beautiful!
Happy Easter!
I have been trying to take some of my photos to a more basic level retaining only what I consider is the essential detail. _DSF0913
Three women collect water in a Jodhpur stepwell teeming with fish.
Stepwells in Rajasthan, India, boast a rich history dating back over a thousand years. Initially built to harvest rainwater and provide access to groundwater, they evolved into architectural marvels and communal spaces. Constructed by digging into the earth, these structures were adorned with intricate carvings, serving as both utilitarian and aesthetic symbols. Stepwells facilitated water storage in arid regions, crucial for agriculture, drinking, and rituals. They also served as meeting points, offering respite from the scorching desert heat. Over time, stepwells declined with modernization, but their cultural significance endures, inspiring art, literature, and conservation efforts. Today, they stand as poignant reminders of India's ingenuity in water management and architectural prowess.

The Essence is an ongoing study about minimizing the elements in a photo to its essence - shapes, lines and black and white.
Haven't posted in a while since life has been really hectic lately. I haven't stopped taking photos though :). Got a few in the pipeline coming!
Hope you like it!

Working with Lotte in the studio on this project was once again a wonderful experience. It was our first collaboration in this context, and I think we’ll be working together more often in the future.
"short films – …and then we‘ll call it even"
In the silent arena of our minds, where thoughts dance like invisible actors, a profound equality among us all is revealed. These inner conflicts, which do not manifest themselves in the outside world, are the invisible threads that weave the fabric of human existence. They are the silent struggles that each of us, regardless of gender or external circumstances, wages in the depths of our souls. These inner struggles are not mere challenges, but essential components of human existence that initiate us into the mysteries of life.
Every person faces their own inner battles, which are unique in their intensity and significance. These psychological struggles cannot be compared, as they are an expression of each individual's journey through the depths of consciousness. They are the touchstones that shape us and lead us to explore the limits of our being. Overcoming these inner conflicts holds the possibility of growth, transformation, and enlightenment.
The pursuit of overcoming these inner struggles is a deeply personal and often solitary journey. It challenges us to look into the darkness within ourselves and find the glimmers of light that guide us. In this inner argument lies the chance to discover the essence of our being and strengthen the connection to our true self. Thus, these inner conflicts are not only tests, but also invitations to self-knowledge and spiritual development.

I kept this series practically closed as a self-portrait series for a very long time. I think it’s time to open it up and at the same time connect it to my overarching theme, the portraits.
As a rule, these are long exposure shots with exposure times varying between 2 and 30 seconds. In this case 6 seconds. They are series that deal with a range of human feelings and thoughts. They deal with desire, loss, regret and pain and the attempt to process all of this.
Most of the leaves are down off the trees now but the essence of their passing still remains on local sidewalks. This is an iPhone photo edited in Instagram, where I post as trebr67.

A Fun beautiful sim for a place to relax, and have a night of fun on the beach! Highly recommend checking it out.
This sunrise beauty was captured on a Redang Island holiday resort (at Teluk Dalam): a beautiful island with crystal clear waters and beautiful sandy beaches. The island lies off the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia, as the last photo posted explains.
The sunrise is at the "final essence" stage, which describes the final phase of a sunrise, in all its glory, before starting to wane into the sun. Incidentally, the closer a place is to the equator the more colourful the sky is regarding sunrises/sunsets; also like a lot of wildlife (like the hornbill bird) and plants (like red frangipani).
