Your photo says "funny" without the title. That seemed to be a little rare in this challenge. 8

This one could backfire on you and that would be funny. 6

Good image. However mabey it would have been better if you set the camera on the floor.

I don't get the title, but it's a photography challenge, not a title challenge, so oh well. You have to wonder where this whole slipping on banana peels thing came from. Did someone actually do it? it's like the oldest gag in history. Your focus and clarity are great. Detail in both the banana and wood floor are great. I like the angle and framing/cropping. The diagonal lines of the floor are very nice. Lighting is good. Good luck in the challenge.

In this classical comic sequence: approach - amused anticipation - slip - fly -fall - recovery in pain, you chose one of the rare moments devoid of comic strenght. Well done picture otherwise

Excellent idea. Well thought through. I would have put the banana skin on a more plain coloured floor to enhance the skin - but that's imo. Great shot though.
