Interesting effect with the light painting. Wish you'd given the subject more breathing space...feels a bit tight on the crop.

I really like the face that has been carved. Personally, I'm not too fond of the plastic edges effect here. JMO

A little too much editing. This probably would have been cooler with less photoshop. I dig the carving though.

I don't understand what I am looking at here - it doesn't look like a pumpkin :-(

nice image but if this is a pumpkin, it lacks any evidence of it. It may be that the post processing swept you away, and that while the end result is strong, you went too far for me.

This looks like a mask more than a pumpkin. Or a blow up?

The plastic filter makes for an unusual face, however it looses the feeling of being a pumpkin for me. 4
