    The Little Pumpkin

    I noticed this scene at a state park this weekend before beginning our hike. Though I did some photography on the hike, this photo is my favorite of the day. In fact, two of my three keepers for the day were not captured on the hike even though the majority of our time was spent hiking.

    Nice squeeze play there Mike. The little one looks comfortable as a "door stop"...

    Hi Mike,

    Just to say that I love this image for the composition, and especially the story. I think you should buy a few pumpkins and make a series. Mom and Pop... one child, twins, triplets.... etc

    Thanks, Christina! I'm actually considering buying several pumpkins to set up a composition I have in mind. If I do that, there will be too many to keep, so I'll donate them to a charity.
