The Play of Light

http://The Play of Light

I’ve always been fascinated by light.  How it streams through the clouds.  How it reflects and illuminates and hides and transforms.  When I was young, I had tried for a while to capture it in paint, but my talents in that arena are sadly lacking.  I’m absolutely amazed by what artists are able to capture.  Instead I turned to photography, where again I’m no artist but at least I can produce images that make me smile and nod and say, ok I like that.  Inworld I’ve been playing with windlights for quite some time; now I’m trying to teach myself how to use overlays in my photo editing program (and no, I don’t have Photoshop where it’s probably a bit easier).  I’ve discovered that adding a small light flare here or there can add a special little touch to an image and help bring out the magic of light.  I am humbled by what some of my fellow bloggers/photographers can do, and hope to be able to achieve even a portion of what I see…  To light!

  • Dress:  Petrichor/Plastik – Aryini Lian.  For a little dress, this is truly exceptional fantasy wear.  Everything about it is magical — from the bold lining around the entire edge of the dress to the fabulous ornamentation on the breast to the sexy but somehow demure cut.  100& custom rigged mesh, it fits like a dream.  And the texture options! You can choose from the color pack, the decal pack, the pattern pack, or the satin pack, each of which has many options in it for both the fabric & the edging; if you can’t choose, there’s a fatpack that has them all! (I’m wearing it it in Satin with Metal Lining with a texture from the decal pack; see the image below for a view from the front).  Sized for Hourglass, Belleza F/I, Legacy, & Maitreya.  Demo available. 
  • Horns:  Petrichor/Plastik – Uletia Horns Gatcha.  Take a chance on this gatcha for these stunning unisex mesh horns, you can’t lose!  15 HUDs to win, no rares.  Each version is HUD offering multiple choices of color for the horns & for the gemstones (which you can also hide if you choose). I’d wish you luck but you don’t need it, because every version is a winner!
