Challenge: Sticky (Advanced Editing V)
Camera: Canon EOS-5D
Lens: Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM

 Taken at Gary (kiwiness) and Nasti's home studio. I was doing a paid shoot of a techno artist in Amsterdam so I paid them a visit for the weekend. (awesome guy btw)

I took this as part of a diptych but I havn't entered anything for my team since I've been away. I much prefer the diptch and this doesn't make much sense without the other picture. (Gary made up the title, that schlumper) ;-)

I edited this on Gary's cooooooooool (geiiiiiiiiil) computer with different screens then what I have at home so hopefully it is ok.

Nasti did ze hair and makeup
The model is Sarah who is very cool! She is very shy until some juice

Paid shoot in Europe?!?! You're the man!

Oh, but I guess you're still too naive to know that banana peels aren't sticky, they're slippery. Apparently you don't watch enough cartoon with Wiley Coyote.

Cheers!

To my thinking, it gives the idea of "trash" better than "sticky". However, it's a funny shot. I feel sorry for your model :) ~6

Gotta love this one, so down to earth, and I think the absence of lighting is fab

Definetly smelly and messy. Doesn't really evoke stickyness for me, though. Still, cute photo.

whats sticky about a banana ?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

rofl! Thanks for the laugh on this - can't help but to wonder what sparked this idea and the title - maybe I don't really want to know...

Isn't a banana peel the exact opposite of sticky?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

this is beautiful - the grunginess is great - The eyes are well lit and there are no blown-out areas - this skin is perfectly colored for what I think you're trying to accomplish. THe message here though is a little mixed - a sorta goofy expression as the banana rests on her head -- I don't really get it - another issue for me is that banana peels make me think of slippery rather than sticky. 7

I guess you could say she has a banana "stuck" on her head. 6
