If You Really Wanna Drive Youself Bananas Try This

Document the Life of a Banana Leaf

 

The bright idea came to me when I first saw this new banana leaf.

Wouldn't it be cool, to show the world before and after typhoon photos of the thing ?

Even, during the typhoon, I went out there with a camera.


And, it was windy, sometimes, I got wet.

The typhoon didn't kill the new leaf, just shredded things a bit.

We got some tough bananas in this part of the world.

Almost every day, I went out and shot photos of the banana tree.

Some people think it's crazy but, it's where I take my smoke breaks, anyway.

It only takes a few seconds to set up a camera.

 So, that's what I do.

It's a heck of a lot easier than trying to do pushups while you're smoking.

One day, I caught a snail, slimming around on my favorite leaf.

Snails can't be good for plants so, I threw it over the fence.

The damage, may have already been done.

The whole banana tree looks like it's about to give up.






But, I keep going out there and shooting every day, anyway.

There isn't anything fascinating about dead banana tree photos.  I know.

Once my mind is made up, to do something, I just keep on doing it.


So, if you don't like bananas, look at the poinsettias or, hibiscus flowers.


Meanwhile, excuse me, while I continue to drive myself bananas !
