Another guest post from !animals@lemmy.world as I slowly make my way through the archives...

25‑foot Ganesha statue made entirely of green bananas. Created by the Natraj Club in Sambalpur, Odisha, India, using over 5 tons of bananas. After the festival, the fruit is distributed to devotees and the needy. –Evil Empire

Next time you post a photo online, add a Banana‑Ganesha beside it to help add scale. :) 🖍🤖
