A Southern Pumpkin Patch

A spur of the moment trek to Trinity Lutheran Church for a photo op in the pumpkin patch with the boys today.

There were only 3 images altered/cropped. The lighting was perfect. It's nearly impossible to take an unworthy photo with so many brightly colored gourds in one place.

Below are a few images from our journey, and through the power of blogging you'll get to join us.  Let's go.


First up...the entrance (partial view of the full patch).  I took this through the front window while driving in.


The Warty gourd....


The REALLY Warty gourd.....


Shade, sun, oak trees and gourds.  This photo should give you a feeling of what the weather was like today.
A perfect fall day!


THIS is my FAVORITE image.  Isn't this woody stem amazing??  Great contrast against the bright orange color and ripples on the pumpkin.


An orange mass beneath a shady Southern oak.  This was my second favorite image. 


Sunny pumpkins.


A few off-color gourds.  Just as beautiful as the orange ones.




It's interesting how some interpret the word "Smile"....




That's it for now.  I'll have the remaining images tomorrow.
