Today I’m excited to show you my entry for the 2013 Oscar Fashion Photo Contest (see photo below) which is sponsored by Sascha’s Designs and Styles by Danielle! I first learned about this contest while visiting The Rose Theatre with a friend. So I thought I’d do a little write up real quick about The Rose Theatre / Angel Manor and plan to add more notes regarding Sascha’s Designs and Stylle immediately following.
Information regarding the contest can be viewed here:

My first visit to The Rose Theatre / Angel Manor was in November 2012 while on another “photo shoot” opp with a friend. He suggested we visit the Rose Theatre Art Gallery in hopes to continue my inspiration and aspirations for my personal graphics artwork and future plans with it in SecondLife and my personal website.
I have a grand collection of photographs to add to my website very soon. http://tanyaelisehowardphotography.yolasite.com/
The first area we ventured into was the Library! I gasped at the beauty and perfect texturing throughout which resulted in excellent craftsmanship in design. I’m quite picky about texturing myself! There are so many rooms and areas to visit ~ it reminds me of the Smithsonian Institute in that you just can’t see it all in one day! I had seen photographs of this amazing Library on the web in the past and was delighted to actually be inside it now! It’s breathtaking and is a “must see” in SL!!
We spent several hours wondering around and taking pictures before we entered the Art Gallery since I was so excited for all the beautiful and entertaining surroundings. Once inside the Art Gallery I studied carefully the variety of art displayed with impressed thoughts and kudos in my mind for the Artists! I hope to show my work there someday, too.
I made sure to click on all the visitor information signs for their events, performance venues and art show dates. This is when I read about the Oscar’s Photo Contest and decided right there and then to enter when the time came around again.
Beautiful stained glass windows At Angel Manor!
We went back many more times and attended an exquisite Christmas Event: The Nutcracker Performance. I felt like I was actually living inside SL for real while gazing at the dancers and mesmerized by the music.
The Nutcracker Performance December 2012
The gorgeous stage and extravagant performance hall is one of the most impressive I have seen in SL. Quite glamorous!! There is a sort of elegant vintage feel when you are a guest of this venue. I hope they put on Phantom Of The Opera sometime soon, too!
The palace was built by Kaya Angel. One of the rooms has magnificent art hanging with a photograph of Kaya and associates. (photo to be added soon)
And so the time arrived to enter the 2013 Oscar Fashion Photo Contest and I have been a busy little bee changing into an array of evening gowns, setting up my own props at the BamPu Legacies Photography Studio and simply visiting sims to take pictures. My friends always IM me to come play ~ but I have been on a mission for the last month to get that final photo to submit. So, here you are!
Upon viewing the numerous entries for this special contest, I have admired them all. I would like to extend my best wishes to everyone!
