« Got Etiquette or Ethics Questions About SL Noobs? Ask Miss Metaverse Manners! | Main | Watch "The 3rd", Surreal & Lovely SL Machinima Inspired by Eliot's "Wasteland" »
I love these two pics above and linked to in there larger form here, and I'll tell you why: One of them is a famous painting by Edward Hopper, while the other is by SL photographer William Weaver, who used SL's dynamic shadow to recreate it naturally (so to speak) in-world. I won't say which is which, so you'll just need to click here.
Thanks to Ms. Lillihook's "What I Like" series, which encouraged me to like William Weaver.

Now imagine if he had spec maps for the subtle wall detail. :) (Yes I will keep doing this.)
Nice work though.
