Outside: pumpkins, Halloween never ends

Halloween is always kind of a big deal. It just is. I'm not sure why, because I'm not really some sort of Halloween traditionalist, and really, I'm not fully into the Halloween mood until the day of. Strangely, if they showed Halloween movies for 30 days following Halloween, then I'd probably actually have the chance to watch them...

So, here are some of the pumpkins I photographed in October and that first day of November...

 

I think it's interesting that in the last 5 years heirloom pumpkins have become fashionable, and that people carve them for Halloween.

Anyway, I hope you had a fun one, and now I have to get back to finishing those illustrations for the calendar. I've just about hit the halfway point!
