a path of pumpkins

As the sun set on last weekend's scarecrow festival, the moon rose on the illuminated pumpkin path.

Over 150 jack-o-lanterns. Some gathered around a theme.

Others determinedly independent.

All hand-carved by an industrious woman, proprietor of a local market.

And while I admire the skill and creativity involved, I remain a jack-o-lantern traditionalist. Long live triangular eyes!
