November 1 Jack O' Lanterns

Yesterday I didn't have much time to photograph the pumpkins and I hadn't read an article I had seen pass through my email on Halloween photo tips. So today I read the article and once it got dark I went out and tried some photos. One tip was to place 2 or 3 candles in the pumpkin to give off more light. I went with 2. That was hard enough without burning my fingers. Then I tried some different settings. Nothing terrific but it was a full moon and I like the shadows in the background. My daughter did the traditional pumpkin and my husband carved Iowa Hawkeye. We sent pictures of it to our son who is a huge Hawkeye fan. He loved it!
