ary 18, at 6 pm SLT to try my hand at creating a photographic masterpiece. Nine photographers had registered that night, lyn (Lynn Kristan), Corcosman Voom, Roxy (chrysterox), boots (bootsoffire), NT (Nightripper.beck), Johann Reisende, Keista Aljon, Jonesy (bol30), and myself at LEA sim 3 (http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/LEA3/54/235/42). Corcosman Voom started joining in the hunts as early as March 2008. An amateur photographer, he usually comes once a week to the 6 pm hunts. He recently joined the team that hosts the hunts, so that reduces the number of times he can participate in any given month. Corcosman says he looks for anything that will make an interesting composition, whether it be avatars, objects, or landscapes. His personal favorite is a candid shot of interesting looking avatars. With AOs moving

people around and the chance they will teleport out at any second, it's difficult to catch them in a good light and composition. On an average hunt, he says, he will shoot three or four subjects, changing the Windlight settings on several shots. Normally, he will save 15 to 30 shots on disk in about 40 minutes and then take 5 or 10 minutes looking at them to decide which one to upload.
