Photo-Op: Elven WellPosted by Silverr Andel in windlight , snapshot , SL , Selidor , Second Life , picture , Photo-Op , Fantasy , Falln Gods |

Photo-Op on SLDiscovery.com is a semi-regular feature that puts the spotlight on a Second Life spot that makes for a cool place at which to take photos inworld. Not an entire sim, not even a complete parcel, but just a single specific location - a spot.
Flickr members: join the SL Discovery Photo-Op group and add your pictures taken at Photo-Op spots to the group pool.!! -->> Take note that several of the previous Photo-Op spots are already gone or changed in a significant way that renders those SLurls ineffective as originally intended. Very little in SL stays the same for long, so be sure to grab these opportunities as they come!
Today's Photo-Op is thanks to the creative folks of Fallen Gods. A short foray from the mainstore building in Selidor will bring you to this elven well situated on a small platform, encircled with decorative columns. This is where you (or your model) will make your camera happy!
This is most definitely a place to play with Windlight. The decorative elements of the columns are quite effective at catching angled lighting (such as a sunset), and the well with its neutral tones lends itself very nicely to extreme color changes.
This little spot is in a pretty environment. You'll find that for at least three-quarters of the platform's circumference, almost any camera angle is going to work. If you do spy something you wouldn't want in your picture, a simple nudge on the camera controls should be enough to clear the view.
A little bird will share the scene with you. Flitting fireflies and delicate dropping leaves will also compete for the camera. You may find yourself taking extra shots here to be sure a falling leaf hasn't covered your model's face. Not like that happened to me (cough), but...keep an eye on those leaves!
I chose to have LadyBlue dress in a fantasy style that could have been elven-inspired, but the features of this area are such that it could become almost any time or place you choose. Select an avatar and accessories that best fits your feeling for this Selidor well. Then snap away, and make it your own!
