asphalt & banana

I like very much B & W.
So pensive, so intellectual.
Nostalgia, with a bit of gastralgia.
This is my homage to Lou Reed and the Velvet Underground, for example.

Excellent!
And this is not a simple banana, this is a Chiquita!
I think this is the first time I see banana with a label! :-)

I am sure they would like the dedication. Another great capture!

That was pop art...you weren't supposed to eat it!!

!La bouche de fer! Ou le banane (euh, banal) transfiguré!;)
(j'aime beaucoup le rendu de l'arrière-plan qui donne sa force à l'image).

Wow, talk about stirring up the past, Adal. I think Lou Reed went back to his first profession, which is an accountant, lol. Great B&W you have produced here, and your comments are always fun to read.

La nostalgie avec une pelure de banane, c'est une nostalgie teintée d'humour ;-)
J'aime beaucoup ce mélange là.
Autrement ce qui me frappe dans cette photo, c'est son relief (3D) bien marqué.

I like some black and whites.. this one for example - which has such clarity and depth in tones. As for it being intellectual? Hmmmm, I know sometimes color takes away from an image.. makes you pay attention to it instead of what the content is.
But I also know that some b&w's take the life out of an image.
This really is the type of b&w that appeals (get it? LOL)

Great homage. I think Lou Reed would love the image.

A 'Walk on the Wild Side'! Very fun image, Adal ...
But I think just as much a tribute to Andy Warhol!!
