Many people have been asking what I am currently using to take pictures in Second Life.  The answer is that I was using Firestorm.  Firestorm is an amazing viewer and I have taken some amazing pictures with it.  However, since I have upgraded my computer and have a more advanced graphics card, I am now using Black Dragon.  Black Dragon has a learning curve and it took me awhile to really use its full potential.  It has the ability to take some amazing pictures and its not for anyone but I wanted my pictures to look as if I were playing a video game where I could use the full potential of my graphics card.  Moreover, Black Dragon is for very advanced users but once you learn it you can appreciate it for what it is.  

​

The windlights I use are FoxCity's windlights which are amazing, including Swain's Chocolate Series Windlights and Annan Adored's Windlights Settings, including my own Windlights Settings along with the windlights settings included in Black Dragon and adjustments.  I also do post processing that includes Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro.  I do not use Shaders because for one they make the viewer lag to much and second the effects I want can be achieve by the viewer and the programs I use.   My passion for photography has taken me to new heights and I love being creative.  

​

I also love to blog.  I blog for some designers and I am now open to having more sponsors.  

​

I do photography for creators and designers only.  If you are a creator or designer and are interested in my photography services, please send me a notecard in-world to Giselle Bluxome.  I would love to be your photographer.

Thank you,
