Simple, yes. I like that. Maybe use a less ripe banana. but otherwise a ver nice shot.

Interesting idea, but I'm not sure if all the negative space really works. I think it weakens the impact of the bananas rather than strengthening it. I love the colours in this though, and the lighting is great.

Clever cutting job! If you used "white fluid" for your background you could have called it "banana cream pie"...

Very good idea. A bit on the bright side, but the colors look great. I would like to see it a bit sharper and cropped down some. Maybe tilted up on the right side some?

Great idea! I think I would have liked to have seen iit cropped a little closer.

Cute but overly bright...maybe less of the white background?

Goofy and fun. Bananas are the ultimate goofy fruit. They are rarely associated with elegance. Your image does not tell me much more than that, though. Perhaps some different lighting, or a different background would help you comment on pi and not merely make a symbol out of a banana?

I just had to laugh. Very clever!!!

Excellent! Creative and well executed. The border looks a bit cheap though, and a black border filling the edges would've made it a bit more grand, and complemented the black/yellow contrast in the banana.

Good title too.

well done, good lighting, nice borders, you get to eat the props after the shoot - one of my top picks this week.

The border here definitely detracts from the statement of the photo. I would love this with just a stark, white background. The border also emphasises the slight shadow you have along the right side of your photograph, which you may have gotten away with without the border. Great shot, though -- very original. Nice setup.
