*SL Name: Arnno Planer

*Rez day: 04/07/2007

*Best moment in SL: Perhaps, the first day. Every day after that, was a little less good…

AL: Would you tell us a bit about yourself. How would you describe your personality?

AP: I'm French. I am 47 years old, including 10 on Second Life and 5 on Flickr. Photography on Second Life is for me a creative hobby that allows me to get less bored.

AL: How did you find Second Life?

AP: In 2007, there was a buzz about Second Life in France. I heard of concerts of famous artists, cities, museums in 3D. I had also seen a report on a man who claimed to make a lot of money for being a gigolo. All this aroused my curiosity.

AL: How did you get interested in SL photography?

AP: I began by taking portraits of people I met, especially female avatars, which occupied my time in-World. I realized that people were generally quite happy with it. So I got into the game. That is how I became the "Paparazzo" on Flickr. I am a rather shy boy and my English is very limited, so photography came as a very good way to get in touch with people. My real pleasure, far beyond is photography.

forever...probably I just prefer a sane debate than an insane courtesy. Now, can I drink my coffee?
