Presentation
What is, for you, the very best, the ultimate, the most quintessential part of Second Life? What thrills your heart? What fires your mind? What gives you the happiest, saddest, angriest, joyfulest, silliest... whatever-est emotional, physical, intellectual thrill in Second Life? Now take a picture of it.
The point is not to simply depict a place, a thing, a person, or an experience, but rather to make us, the viewers, FEEL your feelings, experience your reaction. Show us how Second Life's quintessential very best touches your soul. Put all that into your photo. Click
