Bananas!







Since its my birthday I thought I'd give you a little taste of what I'm obsessed with these days.

Bananas.

Yes, Tanzanians eat them for every meal, and tea time in between. But banana trees and their leaves also provide the most beautiful backdrop I can think of for day to day life. Those big leaves are as tall as a most adults.  They start rolled up tightly and then slowly unfurl into this massive leaf.

I simply love them!

  2. I had the same question. The way the light comes through the banana leaves is gorgeous. Beautiful photographs.
