Description "
Do we, do we know
When we fly
When we, when we go
Do we die?
"

Question? by System of a Down:

---

Just a little photomanipulation depicting how I see the theological concept of the Limbo.

House and chairs from SXC [link] and [link]
the rest from my personal stock.

Thank you!
Most of it is photomanipulation, though.

is there a reason for "9"?
excellent work.

Thank you!

Someone else asked about the "9", too.
To me it hasn't got any specific meaning - but I strongly felt it had to be number 9 and nothing else. I did think of numbers 21 and 717, too, but they didn't feel right after a while.

I guess it just wants to say, that there are many many "waiting room stations" in Limbo, and this picture shows one of them, number 9.

And if you count the alphabet, 9th letter is "I", which gives more perspective to interpretations about the number

you're welcome

i know well that "strong feeling". there is no visible explanation, but anything else is just wrong

thank you for that interesting explanation, it made a deeper impression on me.

Absolutely captivating.
Man this is great. Bowed down with sorrow.. just incredible, and a good concept. me like.


Tears falling from the sky
Cold winds make the fade leaves fly
Sadness and sorrow is filling the air
Crying for you, 'cause you're no longer here
Tears

You have spread your wings
And flown far away
Only present is grief
I'm bowed down with sorrow

Grief, more than i can bear
Hope turning in despair
Bowed down with sorrow, I'm bowed down in vain
There's no one here who can ease my pain
Grief

You have spread your wings...

Pain and suffer, all I see
Misery is blinding me
Time will come when I will follow
But so long I'll mourn for you

You have spread your wings...


Conception - Bowed Down With Sorrow
just a song that came in mind while looking at this picture..

have a nice day

mmisterbungl [2006-02-09 07:16:08 +0000 UTC]

i think the effect on the moon takes away from the overall photo....the bevel in particular. other than that, the ambience is perfect!

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Viika In reply to mmisterbungl [2006-02-09 14:33:34 +0000 UTC]

Thank you for your opinion
I have several version with and without the moon. The thought in this version was to make the moon look like the "beater" (or what the hell it is called in English) of an old tall clock. But now as I look at months after creating it, the bevel does look a bit off.

After spending an eternity there in my kind of limbo, they'll be begging for that white space...
