Description A play-off of Adam and Eve. I wanted to shoot an Adam but haven't gotten around to it yet. This was hung at Pinot Gallery in Philadelphia, PA for a few months.

*update* I'm REMOVING the warning on this image for nudity. I don't find a sexual theme and I've gotten many comments about it not being worth warning. If you DO take offense just let me know and I'll put it right back up!

Please respect my model and only comment on my image, not her body.

-------

Thank you all SO much for your support and for the DD!!!! Just a bit of background. This was not meant to be a LITERAL interpretation. I took inspiration from the Bible, but also from Rapunzel, Sleeping Beauty, and other parts of my life.

I really love this photo and the whimsy of it, but I didn't get Adam and Eve when I first saw it, I actually thought it had something to do with Avalon, because its known as the Isle of Apples. And apples are associated with faeries in general, but I love how you conceptualized the image, its original and TIMELESS (something usually not associated with Eve.

Thank you so much! I was nervous about the lighting since I was using my flash on camera and bouncing off a huge reflector. It was a bit amateur looking back so I'm glad you like it!

photofairy In reply to Limetastic [2011-12-02 08:50:37 +0000 UTC]

Really?? Wow, it turned out really beautifully! Such 3d feel to it, very nice post processing also. It is great to see an image excel like this even when it's a part of a learning experience, just goes to show how great art can be created without too many fancy things like perfect light, pro camera and such. Enjoy and keep up the great work

This is an amazing picture, it caught my eye so well. i absolutely am in love with it. i only have one suggestion for improvement... make her toenails and fingernails match...? sorry that just stuck out a little to me, but i really think this is an awesome photo. great job

The fact that you see Eve's hair as being that long is MIND BLOWING!
I NEVER thought that her hair would be so long but now it just makes perfect sense!

Absolutely Genius concept

Limetastic In reply to Doodelay [2011-12-02 07:45:19 +0000 UTC]

Haha thank you! I'm not sure about genius since it's so long in a lot of my fav paintings but I didn't see her having a modern haircut since they were alone without a barber nearby. Thank you for your kindness I'm so glad you like the image!

Is there a reason why you went with green rather than the more common 'red' apple? I think it's really interesting- I may write a critique/essay thing on it after XD lovely model, as well- the pose you have her in is wonderful and very... memorable? Powerful? I can't remember the word.

Limetastic In reply to fai-fly [2011-12-02 05:10:47 +0000 UTC]

Well I had considered red for a bit but honestly nobody was there in the garden of Eden and there's been so many disputes on what fruit it really was that I decided that I prefer green so it's going to be green. I thought the green and goldish tones would better accentuate her blonde wig and tan skin. If she were pale and I'd used a dark wig then maybe I'd have chosen red to balance out the cooler palette. I try to really consider my colors before I go into things. My bedroom in that apartment was lime green. I mean LIME. So seeing that against my pine floors every day I got to really loving the combination. I hope this helps clear it up! A lot of people have commented on that part! It's really awesome to hear everybody's critiques so please feel free to write one up I am completely open to hearing what everyone has to say! This is an older piece but I do love it and I might try and update it in the future with my new camera and equipment!
