| Too all the voters wanting this in color, I shot it that way about 35 times. Trust me when I say it didn't work well, and to me it didn't fit the challenge in color. All it said was, "A Macro of Bananas." The black and white said, "Curves of Bananas." |

| I think the choice of B&W made this even better. |

| For some reason, my eyes keep getting distracted by the fading-to-black in corners. Was that intentional? |

| Do you think a bit more contrast in this B&W shot would have brought out the curves in the banana better? |

| I know black and white bring out shapes, but I would have liked it better in color. |

| No reason to use black and white for a shot like this. A nice vibrant yellow perhaps with some ripened green would've made this a much more interesting shot. |

| This one kind of grew on me. Nice composition. Good use of B&W to emphasize the form rather than the color of the object. |

| Good contrast, works well in black and white. |

| I was going to shoot one of these, but all the bananas in the store looked like crap! :) The lighting is fantastic, I love how it drops of nrear the edges. |

| Nice photo. I know this is a personal preference but I wish it were in color. Otherwise, it is a good interpretation of the challenge. |

| Not bad, but could have used some curves. :) |

| The bananas are too cropped, showing more of them would show the curves better. I like that the fruit isn't perfect (exterier marks and all). Added with the black and white, it gives the photo more depth. |

| Clever title, nice abstraction, good lighting. I like it! |

| Thought this was another dirty toilet rim shot at first (not meant as a criticism). Nice picture. Think the dead-ant-like blemishes detract from the curves and shadows. |

| I like the title, but it's hard to tell they're bananas |

| Beautiful. Very subtal and I like it. Nice choice, black and white when you just really want to see the yellow. Gives it more of an achitectual feel. Which is good. |

| something about this really gets me, i can't even say what! all i know is that I would proudly hang it on my kitchen wall, and for that, my friend, you get a 9! |

| great curves and lighting, I would have liked to see the color. |

| oh man.. i love this one. not just because i chomp bananas like a chimpanzee. lined up with all the other entries, yours is the one that really shouts "CURVES!" even in thumbnail size. |

| Har har. Good picture. I think smoother bananas (fewer spots) would have been better. Did you try this in color? Doing it in color may distract from the curves too much, or it may distract just enough from the speckles, I don't really know. But i'd like to see it in color. |

| I love this picture. THe curves, shapes and tight cropping on the bananas combined with the black and white are very artistic. a high rating. |

| Woudn't this have been great in colour? |
|

| i like the detail here, and the black in white is a very good choice for this shot. the only thing i dislike is the dark lighting in the lower corners. it detracts from the overall composition. nice shot, nonetheless. |

| The curves are stark, since the famous yellow colour is lacking, but perhaps a slight yellow tint would give it a bit more warmth. |

| clever, i like the curves ...could use more contrast |

| Good use of B&W to focus on the curves/ patterns. |

| I really like this photo but I'm wondering why you chose to go black and white with it? This is a good macro shot and I think the natural colors would have emphasized your curvature some more. I also know that it's hard to find perfect bananas :) Keep up the good work... |
