Pumpkin Hunting - 2010

Yes another Pumpkin patch thread. Sorry.


Trying a little something different with this set. I don't know if they work or not.

His blue eyes are so lovely! Did you add additional bokeh blur to the images? Some of the blur looks unnatural.

Other than that, love the photographs, very sharp and the colors are very nice.

They're all fairly well done, I think. I especially like the last few. Use of blur might be a little heavy-handed for my taste--but this is obviously a subjective thing. I would say, however, that in terms of at least post-processing, they all, especially the first, look a little hot, a little over-exposed--my judgment of this is based on the boy's skin.

i think the p-p is a bit much.

I like #3 best, they are all good

yup, nice shots and the blur vignette is overdone.

Lesson learned.

Yes, I added the blur in PP to try something new. I suppose I was feeling a bit too artsy last night and overdid it. I'll rework these and pull it back.

Big thanks to everyone that responded.
It definitely helps me grow as an artist.

Just cut the blur down by 60%. Still maybe too much for some, but I'm looking to preserve this style on these.

Thanks again.

I think they are very cute pictures. I really love #'s 3, 4, and 5. Great Job!
