Leah-Marie Candid photos of the 2021 St. Lucia Day celebrations in Second Life.

today saint lucia dayA popular holiday among people of Italian and Scandinavian backgrounds, it commemorates the saint who helped the persecuted “by wearing a wreath of candles on his head, lighting the way, and keeping both hands free to carry as much food as possible.”

i will make traditional saffron bread Because that’s what our Swedish-American family does. I think it was a violation of church state, but when I was young, the St. Lucia Festival was held in the high school because it was so large that no local church could hold it. There was always a parade of girls dressed in white and one of them was chosen to be Lucia.

I was curious to see if anyone was celebrating St. Lucia in Second Life this year, and sure enough, I found three events. Since the two of them are in a sex club, I guess it won’t be traditional.

But there is a delay 16th celebration I think it’s a bit more decorative.

Neaira Allezier It shows Santa Lucia from a more oblique angle. I quite like this photo. It’s very simple, but offers interesting angles, use of light and shadow, and a very clean portrait of Lucia.

I was surprised at how few people showed me photos of Santa Lucia Day, but I consider myself lucky to live in a community that always celebrates Santa Lucia Day. Like Second Life, Portland also celebrates on the 16th. Still, I’m glad to see some people celebrating. Now if only I had saffron bread.
