#SLBareFaceChallenge

So I thought I would finally join in on this craze.  The challenge is to post an undoctored (i.e. don't filter in Photoshop) picture of your avatar with no make-up or eyelashes.  All that was done to this photo was cropping, resizing it and adding the text; there were no filters or color enhancements made, no blurring, no shadows, nada.


Shape - My own
Skin - [PF] Harley  - Lid 01 - (dkbrow - A)
Eyes - VS - Beholder V2 - Neko Prowler Series Eyes
Hair - Exile::Rising Tides midnight
Collar - Markz Iron Collar with *OAL* Lover's Ring Hers - My Heart Belongs to You Silver ring attached
Ears - SHORT [MANDALA]FANTASY_ELF_EARS
Pose - *FN* I'm Right Here Pose
Windlight Setting - [AnaLu] studio5
Location - On His bed

Hopefully I stuck within what were the original guidelines. I have seen way too many people posting "selfies" where they still have lashes, make-up, etc.

Forest Stalker


Inspiration
I enjoy the hunt.  Slinking silently through the trees, following tracks, picking up scents, listening for the subtle rustle of movement in the underbrush.

    Blogging soon...


    P.S. Trying to save blog images as JPGs now, instead of PNGs.  Please let me know if you see any quality issues.  I try to limit the width of blog versions to 2000 pixels, but I upload the full size PNG to my full Flickr and Deviantart accounts.

    Inspiration
    I love coming up with dark combinations of clothing and accessories.  While I am always elvish, I've never had the uppity ideals of a high elf, but despite my love of nature (my true wood elf side), I tend to often hide in the shadows and pull from their power.

      I need your help!

      I am looking for a list of the great shopping events in SL that happen on a monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, or yearly basis so I can add a calendar to the blog to show upcoming events.  I need event names, brief event descriptions, websites, event dates, start and stop times, and locations.

      Thanks for any help you can offer!
