Editor’s Note

Hey there, fabulous readers!

Welcome to the February edition of FOCUS Magazine, your go-to source for all things Second Life photography and beyond.

Get ready to mark your calendars because the highly anticipated FOCUS Photography Fair kicks off on February 16th! Dive into our “Vendor Catalogue” to discover a treasure trove of exciting tools and gadgets that will take your photography to new heights. And hey, don’t forget to bring a friend along for the ride! Let’s make this fair the biggest and best one yet.

In this issue, we’ve got some exciting interviews lined up for you. Join Hermes Kondor as he sits down with the talented Ilyra Chardin for an in-depth chat about her incredible work. It’s been a while since we last featured her, so we’re thrilled to shine the spotlight on her once again.

But that’s not all – Kairi Cristole takes us on a journey to the picturesque Greece sim, where she shares insights from the owners themselves. Immerse yourself in the beauty of Greece through Kairi’s enchanting writing style. And of course, don’t miss our Art on Tour reviews, where we highlight the latest galleries and exhibits across Second Life. Show your support for local artists by checking out these incredible showcases.

As we celebrate Valentine’s Day, Chinese New Year, and Black History Month, let’s spread love and positivity wherever we go. Take a moment to appreciate your colleagues and friends – after all, they’re the ones who make our virtual world feel like home.

On a somber note, we bid farewell to a true legend of Second Life, Frolic Mills. His contributions to art and fashion will never be forgotten. If you haven’t had the chance to meet Frolic, be sure to read up on his inspiring story in our September 2021 issue.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy this month’s edition. And don’t forget to join us at the fair – it’s going to be an event to remember!

With warm wishes!
