Goliath Gardens where you can become the bug, be careful of Emily though...


In a quiet corner of her family's backyard, Emily, a curious young girl with an insatiable appetite for learning, had embarked on her latest scientific inquiry. Armed with a magnifying glass and a boundless fascination for the natural world, she had become an amateur entomologist, devoting her time to the study of insects that inhabited the small ecosystem in her garden.

On this sunny afternoon, Emily's attention was captivated by a gleaming magnifying glass her grandmother had given her. She had heard tales of how sunlight could be harnessed as a powerful tool for investigation, and she couldn't resist the urge to experiment.

Emily decided to investigate the effects of focusing sunlight through her magnifying glass onto the tiny creatures that populated the leaves and flowers. She had a sense that this investigation might uncover something remarkable, and she was determined to document her findings.

With steady hands and a child's boundless curiosity, Emily positioned the magnifying glass between the blazing sun and a hapless ant that was going about its daily business. As the concentrated sunlight passed through the glass, it formed a pinpoint beam that bathed the unsuspecting ant in intense heat and light.

To her amazement, Emily observed the ant's reaction. It scurried frantically, its tiny legs moving in a blur, desperately seeking refuge from the intensified sunlight. The beam acted like a miniature solar oven, raising the temperature around the ant significantly. Emily realized that the magnifying glass could concentrate sunlight to a level that was uncomfortably hot for the insect.

Emily's experiments continued, and she began to notice other effects on various insects. Some insects, like butterflies and bees, seemed to be more resilient and could quickly escape the focused sunlight, while others, like smaller ants and beetles, were particularly susceptible to the heat.

As Emily meticulously documented her observations, she pondered the ecological significance of her findings. She wondered if insects had developed adaptations to avoid or tolerate the concentrated sunlight. Her research prompted questions about the role of natural selection in shaping the behaviors and physiology of insects in response to environmental factors like sunlight.

Emily's backyard experiments not only fueled her passion for entomology but also sparked her imagination about the intricate web of interactions in the natural world. As she continued her studies, she hoped that her discoveries would contribute to our understanding of insects' fascinating adaptations and behaviors under the unrelenting gaze of the sun.

In her quest to uncover the secrets of the miniature world in her backyard, Emily exemplified the spirit of scientific exploration, reminding us that even the simplest tools, like a magnifying glass and sunshine, can reveal wonders hidden in plain sight. three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:Goliath Gardens

I have rebranded the grid to Three Hills Grid. When we first named the grid we thought to name it after the magazine and since then, I have seen another grid named Virtual Grid, so as to eliminate any confusion I thought it would be best to rename it. I have always thought of Black Hills Gold as Three Hills Gold (the trio color of the gold) so naming it Three Hills Grid seemed right. The virtual-hg.com address is the same, I may also change that in the future. https://virtual-hg.com/JOpensim/index.php

While the heart and soul of Virtual-HG magazine remain unchanged, this rebranding is a testament to my profound passion for crafting intricate jewelry pieces.

I designed and copyrighted the "Peace for Ukraine" pendant with the intention of it being worn in real life (RL). I've received numerous requests for the STL, DAE, and OBJ files to enable 3D printing and wearable reproduction. To address this, I've dedicated time to enhance Monentes Jewelry Downloads page. You can now conveniently download the files directly to your hard drive and employ them as desired. Please bear in mind that the design is copyrighted, and it is imperative that it is never used for commercial purposes or sold. You will find the download link on this page: https://virtual-hg.com/JOpensim/index.php?option=com_conte... it is listed under Pendants.

I will be adding more jewelry here as I can.

Thank you for all your support!

I have often been asked where is it that I get my inspiration from. Creating jewelry now since 2012 you would think I would run out of ideas. I get inspiration from silhouettes, I extract the curves. I wrote this to show a bit of how it is done. https://virtual-hg.com/JOpensim/index.php?option=com_conte...
