Can a Banana Peel Be Appealing?

On a short walk to get a latte, I saw this discarded banana peel and wondered, Can a banana peel be beautiful? I think so, in its own way!
I know, I know! I'm treading on a slippery subject here and may fall flat on my face. Here's hoping you agree, even if you don't go bananas over it! :)

It looks like it could be some fancy tropical bird!
Dennis Hoyne12-Jan-2014 03:28
It does have beauty, especially the way you presented it. V
Hank Vander Velde12-Jan-2014 02:09
Yes, beautiful shot and great narration Vern.
Sam Rua12-Jan-2014 00:20
When you capture it like this is certainly is. Nice one all around, Vern.

Great shot of a banana at its best.:)

Very colourful and delightfully presented.., the answer is yes...V

This peel certainly look appealing with the layer of frost and shard like background. "V"

Interesting! I think if you slip on a frosty banana peel in most cases invokes a double indemnity clause though it usually gets overturned on a peel.
As for beauty? It’s beautiful to a banana slug.

In this case,absolutely!!

Well seen and processed.

It's a winner!
Paul Milholland11-Jan-2014 18:31
Since you're probably still on the mend, better to have gotten a shot of it than to be surprised by slipping on it. ;-)
Richard Marcus11-Jan-2014 17:50
You certainly managed to make this image work. Against the dark background, I found your image to be very a-peeling ... Well done!
Guest 11-Jan-2014 17:38
It does make for a nice image, but hate the person who was so rude as to throw it on the ground for someone to have to pick up their mess...
Richard Glenn11-Jan-2014 16:06
A very frosty morning indeed, I hope your Latte warmed you up! *V*
Chris Gibbins11-Jan-2014 15:44
Nice. Frosting is the frosting on the cake, I mean banana!
Clarence King11-Jan-2014 15:13
A very slippery subject. :-) v
Irene Wehrli11-Jan-2014 15:09
Yes - it's truly beautiful on this dark ground...

I am laughing, thinking back to Beverly Hills Cop. Falling fot the banana in a tail pipe scene…

I find this shot rather disturbing: it instantly reminded me of a mosquito.
Helen Betts11-Jan-2014 08:26
