Red banana


I'm on holiday and enjoying not only a change in weather but also colours. Everything is so bright

I'm watching a banana grow, almost by the hour. Each day a purple leaf unfurls from the flower to reveal another hand of emergent bananas. These leaves are discarded daily by the plant and as they dry in the sun, the skin wrinkles, taking on a leathery appearance.  I have recorded my red banana leaf as a monochrome series of dots and dashes. A kind of banana bar code if you will.
