Our turn through The Looking Glass

In 1871, Lewis Carroll invited us to go through a looking glass with a little girl named Alice, where she was met with fantastic adventures with amazing creatures in this wondrous fantasy land, which was her second trip in fact to this strange land. 
In Second Life, we can travel through to an amazing and wonderful land, thanks to the creative and talented minds of Marcus Inkpen and Sharni Azalee, the owners of The Looking Glass sim.
They have created a sim that is fantastical, whimsical and different, with touches of steampunk atmosphere, earthy charm and a wonderful eye to the smallest details.  Depending on which lighting you choose, you can go from fantasy, to steampunk to gothic very easily. 
I took several photos myself, getting a small taste of some of the things that the sim offered but it's a sample, since there is so much more than what I can even show in just one posting..so drop by and visit and see for yourselves on how many things, wonders and adventures you can find here.

As you can see from the photos of the same tree, windlight is really everything, giving the same thing a whole different look and feel about it.

Everlong: Eclectic View

I've heard of Everlong a few times, through facebook and the destination guide, so I finally popped over there to take a peek of it for myself.  The best way I can describe it is it's like a dream that you have been invited into, with a variety of different looks and feels about it the different areas.  You have grown up, relaxing areas and then it goes to things that we remember from our childhood, like a favorite doll or a carousel that we never wanted to stop riding.
The landscaper/creator of Everlong has put together an eclectic mix of beautiful scenes that makes one feel like we are being given the rare gift of looking into their mind or invited to even view images from our own.  Either way, take the tp and see for yourself, it is well worth the visit.



Everlong - The sim is moderate, so please keep this is mind when you are doing photos here
