Day of the Dead a two day festival in Mexico starts today with ‘Day of the Innocents’ where children and infants are honoured followed by ‘Day of the Dead’ tomorrow where deceased adults are honoured. Here in the western world we refer to it as ‘All Saints’ Day’ and ‘All Souls’ Day’. But I much prefer the Mexican names and its a lot more colourful and vibrant.

I love where I live in Second Life. Sometimes the land changes, the buildings change often. Like my obsession with clothing I love buying homes in Second Life. Behind me is my studio, which is really only a couple of prims formed into a cube. When I’m not out and about looking for places to take pictures in, I’m always here either putting looks together or in that cube taking shots. With well placed shadows, depth of field and windlight settings I take a lot of my shots here. Speaking of windlight settings I can’t recommend enough Strawberry Singh’s shadows which you can download from her site here: Berry’s Windlight Setting’s

I pretty much use them all the time and they work brilliantly with shadows. Her tutorials on using shadows are worth looking at as well.
