Jayanthi is very busy with her school work , and traing the nursery children for the dance on schhol day function. and also having virul flu. so she says she just visits the site once in a while to see all the new kolams.

Sumathi, the bananas are supposed to be real ones. But we may not be able to find out.
It is not hard to "achieve" the same look using Photoshop. Look closely, you'll see that the top layers look natural, whereas, after about half the length from the top, for every few layers, you'll see a spiral line running, and it does give a cut/paste look. But, one thing is clear - this is a very good picture, and I wish the other fruit trees produce in abundance, like this one

lata, I too was telling Jayanthy that it is a cooked-up photoshop stuff! But you have captured its root!
