Happy Halloween 2012

What's a Halloween without a Jack O Lantern!

This one was sculpted from soldered tin sheets. I discovered it at the Puyallup Fair back in September of 2010. Later, I couldn't resist and had to play with it and turn the photo into a digital painting.

Yesterday and today were such typical Pacific Northwest days. We had everything from fog, wind, rain, sun, a little warmth, moody skies, light and dark clouds moving across the sky in different directions. All indicators of where we're headed, for winter! I love the energy you feel on days like today. You never know from any one moment to the next what's going to happen.

I enjoyed a few trips out to run errands this weekend, and of course, work today, it's Monday! But now it's such a comfort to be home gazing out at the trees swaying in the wind and watch the rain bounce off my livingroom window as the sun goes down all nice and warm and cozy.

Enjoy the season, All Hallow's Eve is rapidly approaching and don't forget to bundle up before you leave home!

Happy Halloween 2012!

Debbie hit the market today and low and behold brought in another pumpkin for the front porch.  Next thing she'll have me doing some carving :)

Hey John... That's right, get your trusty carving knife ready to go! :O)

Hi Endre... Thanks, I had a great time playing with this photo. Sometimes, you just gotta mess with stuff, have some fun, and see what happens.

Rene, That is a very unusual Jack-O-Lantern. Winter is around the corner and we had a taste on Saturday but today was summer again.

Rene...

For some reason Halloween is low on my radar ... but cool pic nonetheless!
