Pumpkin carved by swmbo - Marigolds from the Dia de Muertos celebrations at the Mission

 

[Brian Moore]

That pumpkin's white as a sheet; looks like he saw a ghost or something. Bonnie shot, Chris! The marigolds are delightful.

 

[Beth Carter]

very cool, love the dof. looks like something from your dia de la muerta festival photos.

 

[Aldous Lau]

Nice color Chris

Thanks Brian - all swmbo's good work with the pumpkin and flowers

Thanks Beth - it would fit right in wouldn't it - that's given swmbo an idea for next year...

Nice color Chris

Thanks Aldous - I waited until after sunset to get the nice light

 

[Pete Askew]

Well done Mrs D - fabulous pumpkin. Nice shot too.

 

[Mauro Tandoi]

very very nice. is it sharp at 1.4 like 35 1.4?

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Cute...it looks like how my head feels this morning.

Thanks Pete, I've passed on the compliment - she's feeling chuffed

Thanks Mauro - yes, very much like the 35mm - it's sharp wide open with possibly a smoother bokeh

That's just such a great idea for a pumpkin. When the girls were applying their Halloween make up I showed them some of the photos of people with the skeleton-like face painting from your flickr. Made a rod for my own back, I'll know what I'll be doing next year.

I've never thought of painting a pumpkin white. Makes it look ghoulish. Love the marigolds.
