2005 Pumpkin
filed in Family & Life, Media: Photography on Oct.29, 2005
Here we are, Halloween weekend and once again it is time for me to post our recently carved jack-O-lantern. This one took me just over an hour and is much simpler than years’ past. I’ve carried the symbolism of acorns and oak leaves throughout the last three years (my last name is derived from the German for “oak”). The acorns seem to be growing in size and importance year by year somehow. I’m satisfied with this year’s pumpkin but I don’t think it’s my favorite of the three. What do you think?
On a side note, my wife called me a GEEK ’cause I went out to the garage to find our tripod. I don’t think I’m a geek just because I don’t want important moments like this to be forever BLURRY. Sheesh! Love you hun. 🙂

Bah! They would look 200 times better if I had photoshopped them!

I like the ’04 pumpkin the best, but I can see how you wouldn’t want to go through that much effort every year. I was going to carve a pumkin this year…. but I didn’t. I guess when you have children it’s more of a motivation to get it done. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go get some coffee.
