When and where was the photo taken?

This photo was taken at a farm market a few miles from my home in Northeast Ohio in mid October.

Photo Description

Bright orange, variously shaped pumpkins meander along a wooded path of crisp fallen leaves. Cheerful, cartoon jack-o-lanterns dance among the trees, inviting you in to get a closer look at the bountiful harvest, and perhaps to stop in the warm rays of the sun that filters through the trees, and sit on the large rock along the way while you decide which of the cute little pumpkins will adorn your porch or yard during the upcoming Halloween celebrations.

Advice

  • Compose the shot so that the eye wants to come in and wander about, and choose a mid autumn day, when the rays of the sun are filtering through the trees.
