Pretty Pink Pumpkin by

““Autumn brings along crisp air and the last harvest batch before Nature becomes dormant for winter. Yet, pumpkins seem to be saying: Watch our glorious colours and shapes despite cool and rainy days.

“The striking patterns of this humble plant is a feast to the eyes. Lying casually upon each other on a farm stand, pink pumpkins are delightful to observe. Nature’s brushstrokes in mellow pastel colours created these original beauties.

“The pink hues give the pumpkins sheer glow, upon which intricate patterns develop. Like tiny stars on the pumpkin pink canvas, the patterns lend each piece a unique adorable face.

“This capture portrays the lovely pastel colours of the pretty pink pumpkins.”

Artist statement
My photographs are not enhanced; they represent the true nature and colours of the subjects as captured by the lens. I never lure my animated subjects to come close to me: spontaneity is the key.

This is an original uncropped image.
