Challenge: The Great Pumpkin Carving Challenge (Advanced Editing IV*)
Camera: Canon EOS-20D
Location: Dad's house
Date: Oct 31, 2005
Aperture: f4.5
ISO: 400
Shutter: .5 sec
Galleries: Humorous, Still Life

 I chose this one from 3 that I really like. The other two are non traditional pumpkin shots, but were much more difficult to create.

I spent less than an hour carving it one night and set it on fire the next. I put aluminam foil across the opening, leaving an opening so some light would fall into the pumpkin. Filled the foil with charcoal lighter fluid and lit it. It was raining or I think I could have gotten a better shot.

Oh, I sooo under-appreciated this on my first pass! I love the flames and the shape of the surroundings as they're lit up by the light! Nicely carved! Sweet! (bumping up!)
