Description Second in the series. Simple concept of a simple subject. The apple that changed the world as some would see it.

Really dug the way the smoke climbed off the apple. Lighting nightmare. Diffused light everywhere and still holding the smoke. I learned a ton from this image.

Enjoy

how'd you make the smoke coat the apple? and did you hang the apple with a nylon cord or was it resting on something. your concepts are really amazing, sir.

I added to favorites just because of the blue smoke, then afterward noticed the almost silky appearance of the smoke of both colors. Pretty neat.

That's incredibly awesome. Your lighting is absolutely exquisite...

Did you suspend the apple?

It must have been very hard to get light at the right positions to iluminate the smoke like that.

jmansker [2008-11-05 01:11:11 +0000 UTC]

I find this piece very intriguing. The way the smoke is rising reminds me of vector art, very ethereal. How many lights did you end up using? I'm counting four... I could be wrong though...

MyFairLibra [2008-11-04 22:48:42 +0000 UTC]

Beautiful! I don't know much about photography so I really can't give you constructive criticism on the image itself, but the symbolism is striking. I love how the smoke is so brilliant white and mono-directional (suggesting the loss of original innocence perhaps) and the blackness encroaching from the bottom adds a nice sense of mystery.
Truly gorgeous!

rapidvision [2008-11-04 22:35:32 +0000 UTC]

Hm, personally I am not a fan of the light on the apple. There's kind of a dark rectangle on the bottom left corner, and I would have preferred a smoother, more uniform black-to-apple gradient. But seeing as the lighting was an issue, I'm not really gonna bug you about it. And the smoke is kickass!

adavesseth [2008-11-04 22:30:38 +0000 UTC]

Wow!
That is beyond words to describe.
It's really up to the mind to find a solution as to what the "fog" is, and how it's connected with the apple.

I find this piece beautiful, to me it shows that though the apple is beautiful. and tempting it is deadly and that your messing with fire if you dare to touch it.


The Piece is really clean and soft I like it alot, What Scent of Incense did you use?

Davenit In reply to PyroBlaze [2008-11-04 21:46:34 +0000 UTC]

I forget the scent but if you burn a ton of incense like I did for all my shots it just ends up smelling like smoke. My studio wreaks. LOL

Thanks so much for your thoughts.

PyroBlaze In reply to Davenit [2008-11-04 21:53:08 +0000 UTC]

Oh lovely....XD It would have been awsome if you used an apple scented one but I do see how that much smoke it starts to.... not smell so good


and thank you for replying XD I knoticed alot of your comments were one word or so posts so I thought a nice sort of long one would do a body good XD
