Painted a banana black. I was thinking alot on Andy Warhol while shooting.
Set up my light box with yellow background and light from the right. I wanted a strong shade from the banana.
- Did 70-100 shots
- Found the right one. It works best when there is an angle on the banana
- Raw conversion
- Color/contrast/fill light/black adjustments
- Image size
- JEPG export

Love the negative color. Curious as to how you did it. Did you paint the banana or mess with the colors in photoshop? Either way very cool. Nice lighting. Very simple.
tsk task, did you put the banana in the freezer ;) I really like this clever take. The banana being black, void of color, and background being yellow. Normally you'd see it the other way around.
Great stuff. Fantastic quirky idea and nicely executed. Might have been nice to have a little more exposure/lighting towards the tip but I can see why so much solid black is needed to make the point with the yellow background. I really enjoyed this one...it's almost negative eye candy...
