second version
first was probably TOO MUCH DODGING (after asking) ...sigh ..

this was using multiple light modifiers to make the same effect // kinda worked ..
no dodging (and a tiny bit of burning on the chain ...)

usm, color shift purple to blues , bit of sat , then desat the blue edges on the chain & banana , crop
neutral density filters on both background light & banana ... oh ya.. rotated 180 deg ;)

would have been a nice day to try to do tis out side ... but i had a birthday party ...

I really like the idea here. Just wish the lighting were a little stronger.

clever twist

nice try. Not overly original, but is heading in the right direction. Pun intended

The banana doesn't pop out its background enough.

very creative.. maybe the background is taking the attention off from the subject... still very nice..

Great sky! How'd you do that to the banana??

Such a nice idea: but the banana lacks impact - more light focused on it perhaps - more of a yellow saturation and fill light. Dunno...

Clever idea, but there is a distracting grey edge on the banana
