I spend a hell of a lot of time in Second Life building elaborate sets for photo shoots, digging through my inventory for the perfect accessories to style an outfit and shooting an absolute multitude of photos with dozens of different Windlight settings, all for a single picture. I do enjoy it or I wouldn’t do it, but sometimes it is nice to just strip everything back to the basics.

A beautiful dress. A feminine hairstyle. A deserted beach with simple lighting. Five shots later and minimal post-processing I was done.

This post isn’t about the rubber meeting the road; it is about the tranquility of that place where the earth meets the sea.
