Something different this morning. This is my first banana shot! :)

Globally, bananas rank fourth after rice, wheat and maize in human consumption; they are grown in 130 countries worldwide.

An urban legend states that the dried skin of the banana fruit is hallucinogenic when smoked.

Source : Wikipedia

Tech: shot in RAW, level, curves, B&W on the hand, slightly increased saturation on the banana. Cropped and framed.

La banane devait être fière de se voir immortaliser comme ça!!!
Sérieusement c'est une excellente photo. L’opposition N/b couleur est un bon choix et les couleurs de la banane sont superbes.
Bravo!
Michel

Salut Alex!

J'aime beaucopu le jaune et vert presque fluorescent de la banane mais je trouve que ta main en N&B a l'air malade... Je ne marche pas avec celle là... Peut-être en essayant d'autre combinaison du channel mixer tu arriveras à un meilleur résultat!

Désolé!

Denis

this is very effective. it emphasises the colour yellow so profoundly. simple but very elegant.
