Challenge: Surrealism (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Sony DSC-F828

I really had an original block week. Came up with a few lame ideas that I shot. All kinds of different things. Me with a duck on my head, my wife talking on an old phone in the middle of nowhere. But for some reason this photo stood out the most I thougt. I think it is because the banana looks unreal. So here you go, I hope you guys enjoy this. As before, nothing done to photo, no editing.

May I ask why there is a banana in the sky?? I don't get it...

A little low on visual appeal for me. However- if you'd made a road sign that said Watch for Falling Bananas... ;-)

I hardly see anything surreal about this shot. A flying aka thrown banana hardly goes in the right basquet by my opinion. This pic could've used a good photoshop overhaul with Auto-Level, Auto-contrast and some colour adjustments. A better crop could've help too, as the composition is too wide for such a small subject. 4

Haha, more random than surreal, nice attempt though.

I would have thrown up more.

C'mon. With the banana, you obviously were on the right track. This photo just looks like you threw a banana in the air and photographed it. Having the right idea from the get go, you could have done better.

Flying bananas... very funny, 7 for hitting my funny bone.

Is throwing a banana really all that surreal?
03/08/2005 07:59:38 PM
yet close to a banana? could have done without that.
