DPChallenge: A Digital Photography Contest
 
Challenge Details
The Great Pumpkin Carving Challenge
A Member Challenge using the Advanced Editing IV rules.

Description
Your challenge is to carve and photograph a pumpkin or pumpkins. Team pumpkins are allowed (work with friends or family if you like) but PLEASE have at least a hand in the carving yourself. The honor system is in effect on this one; we're not going to be Big Brother, but we want your own, unique, personal pumpkin. This challenge is as much about the pumpkin as it is about the photography. Please be careful when using sharp implements.

Extra Rules
Major element removal is allowed here, including the complete removal of backgrounds. Also, please note the deadline.
