Pumpkin & Punk


Pumpkin-top---wm

Have you ever looked at the stem of a pumpkin? I mean really looked. It's beautiful! All that green marbling and veins...I'd never taken any notice until now.

Just a note: If you have an Aldi's store near you, check them out for pumpkins...they were about half the price than other stores around us. And the pumpkins were heavy and beautiful!

The other day I was in a part of town I am never in and noticed that I could see the hazy skyline of Kansas City. After a little editing I came up with this photo which is not usually my style, but I think that's why I like it!

All I really did was crop, and boost levels to beyond normal!

  2. Both of these are amazing -- I love the contrast of the pumpkin stem with it's multi colors and texture to the single color and smoothness of the pumpkin body -- I need to go find a pumpkin to see if I can do that too : ) And the cityscape is beautiful -- I love the editing you did.
