One of my favorite holidays of the year, strictly from the thematic aspect, is Halloween. It is exciting to decorate the house and light up the windows to display my inner child's hunger for all things spooky. I will never be accused of being one of those neighbors who suck power directly from the transfer station to light up their million lights, but my family can always count on me to transform the front porch or windows into my own personal horror show. While I would love to drop an entire year's salary on decorations, the ones I do get still have a bit of our humor in them. This year we put out some decorated garden stakes that we got shortly after we moved in last August, along with many other bats, spiders, and lights. One of them is a pumpkin stake that has those googly eyes everyone loves to see. I took this picture today and thought of the "Kilroy" reference made popular from an earlier episode of M*A*S*H. Framing the shot, I imagined a couple of little pumpkin hands holding on the bottom of the frame as if looking it. The colors were quite vibrant as well when the sun decided to shine from behind the clouds that had been overhead all day long. With over half of the month over, I am sure that there will plenty more Halloween themes to shoot and blog about.
