Exceptional setup, the classic faces are a nice sight and (if my interpretation is correct) the Charlie Brown costume pumpkin is excellent. The light in the eyes of the two faces seems a bit too bright when compared with the light of the tall pumpkin and the candy, it looks photoshopped but if it is natural, I'd lean towards an extra light source on the candy and inside the tall pumpkin instead of a longer exposure.

Traditional to the max. Loved the use of the candy in this one. Very good image for Halloween and composition is perfect. A little too much noise, though in the lit up faces.
