Wish I could re-shoot this. The string on the peel worked in another shot, but not in this one. I don't have any lighting equipment and for this shot, I was just using natural light from a window (which has passed).

Edits- open, rotate, crop, levels, color balance, add border (then readjust levels and color balance).

Nice idea, shadows a bit too busy I think, needed just one banana shadow

Very cool how you got the shadow of a whole banana in there! The picture has a little graininess to it, overall I think its a pretty good shot.

Great concept. The shadows look a bit noisy.

Nice composition and color but it's hard to tell if you've deliberately gone for the grungy look or whether your post processing just wasn't up to scratch. If its the former then perhaps you didn't go quite far enough. Good luck with it. 7

Awesome concept incorporating the shadow. In an advanced editing situation, it would have been a stronger image without the second (left) shadow.
