...three weeks later (following "Striving 1")
After several inches of snow that managed to stick when all of our mini snowfalls didn't, and freezing temperatures halting the emerging plants, we finally have flowers on the trees and the grey palette is beginning to lift.

Exploring a secondlife sim and I came across a wonderful room.I'mrunning my fingers along the warm wood of this bondage rig, imagining that,one day, I may be bound tightly to it, with an experienced Mistress.

With the arrival of spring on the island I decided to head up to Jeju University with the hopes of getting a few unique pics of people enjoying the warm weather and blooming flowers.
I should have known better as there were cliches everywhere. A young woman throwing petals into the air as her boyfriend cheered her on and clicked away with his camera. A young teen cupping her hands around her face and tilting her head as her friends took her picture, pink flowers everywhere behind her. The atmosphere was great and the images I saw were cute but not something I was interested in photographing.
Then, as the sun began to set and I rounded the corner of the street my car was parked on, I came across this older woman walking slowly down the path in front of me. She must have been about 70 years old and she was clearly enjoying the first hints of spring after a very long winter. The golden light falling down on her was beautiful and the colorful flowers and young woman in the background were framing the scene perfectly.
Suddenly, she turned around and, despite her age, leaped up into the air and grabbed a handful of blossoms. Satisfied, she turned around and slowly headed back down the path.
Spring has arrived.

As I've just hit 10 million and have been screenshotting my data regularly, I thought I'd quickly look a the pattern between uploads and explores over time.
It seems that after hitting the 7-8 million views mark, a lot more of my photos started making it onto Explore.

Btw, the title was entered before this picture became Explored... :) and it's NOT a B&W photo...
Thanks.
