I am a huge Vampire fan. I probably read way too many vampire based books. But, one of the best by far was the Twilight series.
(i am also super excited for the movie release). But to me the cover of Twilight was open to interpretation and i still
have'nt landed on an accurate meaning to make myself content. So instead i decided to re-create the book cover with
slight changes to suit my meanings. And so i used a green apple instead of a red. For one, green apples are my apple
of choice. To me they represented a bitter-sweetness that i think love really is. Theres ups, theres downs, but in the
end none of that matters. The color green represents life. And what is the basis of our being? To love and to be loved.
But Green is also the color of jealousy and envy. And what could be more envious or turn people into the green-eyed monster then love?

Very nice! I love the shot! I guess I am a simple guy but I would gather that the apple would be regular people who vampires want to take a bite of... Thats just me though...

I dont know what is more inspiring the image itself or the passionate explanation. Your love for photography and your ability to define it and share it is why I joined JPG. Thanks! I look forward to more of your work. Vampires and all.
