Hi Emji, nice to meet you! Thanks for the square crop! I thought of the square too, and I like it square. Square is my preferred format, unless I can't help it for one reason or another. There are so many different ways to crop, and I think they're all great. I really appreciate your comments and suggestions. Thanks, Ina

This pic, generated lots of comments simply cause it's a damn good one! Lovely pumpkin, great light and fantastic rich colors.I don't see anything strange about the composition and your crop is just fine. Talking about crop, here is another idea that I dont think bad at all. "Quite a different version that might be nice for the project "Square Image

Ina - looking through your portfolio I think you have quite a distinctive style, and I like it. Often with lovely tones and lots of sharp shadows, it's really nice.

I love it in all the variations. The orange saturation is so good her Ina. I love the crop you've chosen. This is so eye catching from the thumbnail. Cool!

Hi Kathy, it's Jim Dine, born 1935 in Cincinnati, OH. He's famous for his hearts, bathrobes and tools. I don't care for his hearts, but love his drawings of tools! TY :) Ina

I thank you very much, Mark :) I tend to shift my subject matter, as not to bore everyone who looks, from one thing to another. I don't "specialize" in anything. I find still life and architecture rewarding, in that I don't have to ask permission to take pictures. I have learned so much from this site, visiting other people's portfolios, such as yours, it's very rewarding! Best regards, Ina

Amazing composition! Ina, you are just plain good. A simple subject, photographed endlessly at this time of year by everyone and all his friends, and here you have created a complete standout beauty. Fabulous light, color, and clarity. The shadowed background makes the central pumkin pop off the screen, and the stem (handle?) is so strange and cool!
The framing of this image is perfect. I see in the comments a lot of debate about the cropping, which is SO great! I learn so much from this site! But one thing to keep in mind is that pumpkins are big and fat and heavy. Your original crop shows that so very very well. Perhaps because of the dark background and the large round shape that the background accentuates? I think it's one of the reasons it works so well for me. You got it!

Ummm...Kathy, I think I shall resist being drawn into the imagery and whatnot you ladies may have construed from this image, lest I fall into a spider's web of controversy and recrimination. And yah, I genuinely missed any hidden message here, in my naivete perhaps. Anthony.

Thanks for trusting my judgement, Ina...don't know if I deserve that or not, but...I still think your choice of cropping works very well, and I agree that the darkness adds to the balance of this shot. If you cropped some off the top and right I think it would still work, but I don't think it would be better. as for the Jeopardy question...I can't even buzz in! Wish I could :(((

Thanks Daniel :) They are here all along the roads, in stalls, with corn, gourds and fall foliage. As a matter of fact, I couldn't ignore the red maples anymore, I took pictures of foliage, might post one or two.

Kathy, re: composition, I trust your judgement, but I always love to see different crops. I tried this one in a square, but it wasn't interesting. I thought more dark backgound acted as a negative space counterbalance to the brightness. Maybe cropping a bit off the top & right?

Very nice, Ina! I love the colors, and I don't see any problem whatsoever with the crop. I think this is nicely composed! Kathy Can't wait to see what Anthony has to say about your title and what you are referring to. My quess is that he will get it! But...as our friend's two year old says...Not me!
