Lysandra's native city, and the crown jewel of Calathar, Solkaris rises defiantly from the arid expanse like a blazing beacon. Its sunbaked sandstone walls gleam golden beneath the unyielding light, a testament to the resilience of its people. Built atop a rocky mount, the Palace of the Sun towers above the lush green oasis below, sustained by an ancient, hidden aquifer. The citizens of Solkaris are as rugged and unyielding as the desert itself. Hardened by relentless heat and shifting sands, their spirits reflect the stark and unforgiving beauty of their land. Yet within them lies a fierce pride, for Solkaris is not merely their home; it is their legacy, a city forged through fire and perseverance.

The jasmine in the garden is finally opening. Makes the yard smell wonderful. The hydrangeas are still in bloom in the background.
Amid the first blush of morning, the world stirs in gentle harmony. The mist weaves through the canyons like a silken veil, and the falls whisper their endless song, a hymn to the waking earth. Here, where the dawn’s embrace mingles with the quiet breath of the land, my soul feels a kinship with nature.
Boundless...
Eternal...
Whole...

M56 (NGC 6779) est un amas globulaire situé dans la constellation de la Lyre à environ 30 660 a.l. (9,4 kpc) du Soleil et à 30 010 a.l. (9,2 kpc) du centre de la Voie lactée. L'astronome français Charles Messier a découvert cet amas globulaire et il l'a ajouté à son catalogue le 23 janvier 1779. Il l'a décrit comme une faible nébuleuse sans étoiles. Cette même nuit, il a découvert la comète de 1779 (C/1779 A1 (Bode)).

photo manipulation via gimp
Saku had a great idea for a picture of our catboys after the Okinawa festival, i blame him.

A foray into using Gimp to emulate my style using photoshop, i am impressed with gimp, just another learning curve, and with many thanks to my friend Lyle for his advice ( and there will be more needed)

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
He leads me beside still waters.
He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life,
And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
I have told you about GIMP, a free Image Manipulation Program. It works really well, and I´d say as well as Photoshop, and the bonus...IT´S FREE!
I took the originals of few of my photos that I´ve manipulated in Photoshop and re-did them in GIMP, getting the same results.
But as always, it´s best to start slowly and get to know the program and first of all, learn how to download GIMP. For those of you who don´t have gimp, here is a link to how to download it:

The tutorial with explanation images is here: www.soffia.net/gimptutorial02.html
1. Select from the menu: File → Open and choose the Image you´re gonna work with
2. Select from the menu: Colors → Brightness-Contrast...
3. Drag the slider up to 20 or write the number 20 in the box next to contrast. Click OK. Play around with different numbers in both brightness and contrast.
Oh yeah, this is another creation using The Gimp. If you want to try something, take a look here:

I started to mess around in Gimp a little tonight just to see if I could do some stuff I see other ppl do all the time and I sort of figured a few things out, but I'll most likely go back to my raw windlight SL pics with a little picmonkey for framing, words, touch up etc.. This was fun to try though. I might want to do something more in the future, we'll see. I do love plain old SL windlight pics though really.

HSS! my first attempt at textures. it was going to be broccoli with a texture, but my broccoli vision just wasn't working out. this is what I ended up with instead, although it is not the normal way textures are usually used, so i'm not sure if it counts as texture. the clouds are a texture from skeletalmess with some saturation, B/C tweaking. i used GIMP to merge in my sailboat shot.

From the western kingdom of Calathar, Lysandra is a vision of elegance and intrigue, her auburn hair and piercing green eyes as striking as the intricate patterns of her homeland’s fashion. Born of a trusted noble family, she was sent to the empire under the guise of forging peace but found herself wedded to a minor noble in a far-flung province, a calculated insult disguised as diplomacy. Skilled in the arts of Shadow Magic, Lysandra now serves as the foster mother to Serianna, a girl born with extraordinary power. While she teaches Serianna to harness her gifts, the question remains, what else might Lysandra be preparing her for?
