SUNDAY POST: Autumn
Autumn? Not quite here yet, I am afraid….
I hope to see some autumn colours in this town in a few weeks, that is if the torrential rain that has been falling since Thursday does not sweep all the leaves off the branches or leaves them rotten.
However, I’ve noticed one unmistakable sign of Autumn: pumpkins 😀
I can’t carve them, I can’t cook them, but I hope I know how to photograph them.
Here is a bonus track for you by Smashing Pumpkins: Hope

Anyone can see that these pumpkins are a bit colour-saturated :D, but I think they can take it for once … till I find the right amount of measure ;).

Hi
I like this one even better than the first one.
This one looks more natural as photos should look like (as in the golden age of film photography) too much editing can make photos look like paintings, but who am I to impose my opinion. These days anything can go. Don’t get me wrong I liked them both each in its own way, but I prefer this one over the first submission. Another ***** star photo from you.

Beautiful still life.
Great track. Despite his “darkness” Billy Corgan is a tremendously creative musical talent. I just wish that he’d get a much better reign on his Jeckyl/Hyde personality. He’s proven to allow it to interfere with the work he’s done with the Smashing Pumpkins. I’m glad that they’ve been able to pull it together for at least one more project.
