Hi John, in this one it's not clear Who got upset at Adam and is throwing apples at him. For all we know, it could be Eve at the top of the stairs :)

So it wasn't God afterall?...... it was really the core of an apple that started all of us? I'm sure this will lead to an interesting discussion ...... and possibly a cult :))))))
I didn't see the layering of the apples at first and thought you'd stumbled upon a cleaver wall graphic ....... but it's you being clever! Good, Ina.
ps...... has something to do with Eve, doesn't it?

This is fantastic Ina. I think someone should paint a mural like this. The colors work well together and the hand adds a great touch. Nice work!

Tricky and pleasurable superimposed pic; at first I thought the apples were in fact painted on the wall. A good play with forms as well as with PS. Best: Gyuri

Very nice composition and subtle coloring.
There is something mythical: one would say that the stairs are leading to the Paradise and the hand (that used to be tended towards the Creator's!) is here trying to catch the apples that are falling all together to the Earth.
Reassured, I am! No original sin there has been: probably a malfunctioning derrick that has lost a container of apple and Man just above the service stairway of a fuel tank!...
Bravo and thanks for shring this lovely pretext to imagination.

You're absolutely right, Andrzej! Thanks! I don't like to put explicit meaning in the title or explain it in the "About"... prefer to let the viewer get what they want from it... and I don't always have something to say :)

Ina, you are getting surrealistic and/or symbolic at the same time. Your pictures are very puzzled and require a time to contemplate, but the reading is always great. I see the one pertaining to the original sin, am I right? Anyway it's a very artistic expression and I know it's just your creative vein. n.j

Ina, hi, like this image, the hand bothers me a bit but thats me, find this an engaging and unusual composition, well presented, your imagination might find you an inspiring name like.......like......'apple tumble' , allright, I know, it's terrible. good work. cheers, david.

I totally understand, Ann, I'm doing the same, taking the weekends Sat to Mon off, and not posting and not commenting. Life has to go on! But you should still post, even if you're not able to reply. I checked your site and wondered what happened? Funny how we get to worry when we don't see a new post. In a way we all love comments, and then we don't post for a while just to catch up with comments - it's a catch 22. I really appreciate you taking the time to write so much and such great comments. Take care, and ... no more replies! You're on my friends list, so I'll know when you're back! Have a great rest, Hugs, Ina

Hi Ina....like everyone else I'm way behind with my comments so I'm taking a few days off posting photos to give everyone else one less photo to have to comment on and give me more time to catch up. Have been busy outside of UF with real life stuff altely so taking me ages to get around to catching up but I'll be back with more photos when time allows.
Also you had me stumped with the hand and the apples. I thought the apples were a wall mural. You are even more amazing than I thought after reading Neal's spot on translation of your photo art. Truly amazing indeed. Well done Ina. Bravo!! Well done to Neal also for being so on the ball with this one.
Cheers - Ann :)

That's Adam's hand, isn't it? From MIchelangelo's painting on the Sistine ceiling? Adam, apples, and the ladder descending out of Paradise? Ina, you are amazing!

Hi Ann, thanks for taking the time to look. I love your comments, you are so thoughtful with every image! How do you find the time??? I'm very much enjoying this kind of layered work, it helps me express more. The stairs are industrial stairs from a local site, converted to B & W. The apple was sliced and shot in my kitchen, and the hand is a secret (classic artist). I'll keep the secret for a day :)

How very interesting Ina. I can't decide if the stairs are in the wall mural or in this dimension. An illusional play with the eyes. I don't know if this is your intention but it doesn't really matter because that's what I feel from the image. As for the hand....same effect on me again. I like this sort of thouhgt provoking photo art. Very clever and artistic. Another Ina original. Very nicely done Ina.
Cheers - Ann :)
