These are, in fact, not bananas, but the same Aloe Vera flowers in my last photo. They have gone from looking like cucumbers to looking like this...

More images and prints available in my Deviant art and Redbubble galleries.

Art is the perception of the creator. Meaning is the perception of the viewer. acceptance is the perception of society.

Nice shot! The colors here are great, although, I do wish the copyright text on the bottom would be a little smaller but that don't really bother me all that much! Nice job!

Yes, actually I realised the text is a bit bigger than I thought when I looked at the image full size...

LOVELY bunch of "bananas" !! well aloe plants are so great! And the way you captured the yellow is wonderful. Would look great on a desktop because there is room for the icons!!

Great macro shot. The focus of the image is exactly where it needs to be. Nice work Sam.

Well you fooled me Sam, I couldn’t work out what kind of bananas they are :-)
A unusual shot and a wonderful wallpaper.

Very appealing photo. The overall composition in this is lovely, and it looks very abstract, which I like. Well done!

This photo gives me a sensation of slight sweetness on my tongue. When the flowers are open, there is a pleasant nectar inside. Odd, how one sense can evoke memory of another!

Give me blue and yellow anyday. Good to see you back to this photography. I'm with Greg on the abstract look. Well done.

Absolutely stunning. Do they open? I'd like to see that stage too when and if it happens although, I can't see how they could top themselves from here. My favorite type of macro, extremely close and narrowly focused.

I remember first looking at this picture and thinking... "those aren't bananas!" I'm glad I read your description before trying to 'correct'. I really enjoy the macros. They make for great desktop scenes.
