Challenge: Banana (Advanced Editing II)
Collection: Portfolio
Camera: Olympus D-490Z
Location: Oakland, California, USA
Date: May 23, 2004
Aperture: 8.6
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/320
Date Uploaded: May 23, 2004

 A banana tree growing nearby. Darkened with curves, cloned-out some nearby pieces of buildings in favor of more sky/clouds.

Partly inspired by the news that bananas may be headed for extinction, and we may need a monument to them, once I darkened this to a near-silhouette it had kind of a metallic look to me.

Cropped, rotated, USM, plus modifications noted above.

Don't see the banana. Try to crop the image diffrent

Ultimately, this is a very dull image I'm afraid - especially if you remove the challenge relevance.

Humm don't see a banana here..unique shot, but doesn't meet the challenge.
I think the capture of the tree is okay, much more interest if we could see the trunk.
