For our first assingment, Nikon Gayle has offerd up her halloween pumpkin.
Feel free to right click and copy and paste the pumpkin to your computer. Make sure you click on the thumbnail photo in the top right corner. It will take you to a nice big photo to right click on .
You may want to save it as a TIFF file while working on it so as not to lose the resolution. Switch back to JPEG to upload you version of the pumpkin.
This is a sharing and learning group and we want to know what you did. So if you could please oblige us and include info on what you did to the image, it would be greatly appreciated!
Have Fun!!!! Be creative.

Denise, same goes for you. Just get a pumpkin - email me if you need help - and take it to a photo program. Most everyone has one . Try messing around with it, change the color even, that's what it's all about. Just have fun with it.
I took the pumpkin you provided and using Microsoft Picture It 9: the first thing I did was make it square (eliminating excess space above the stem), and increasing it's sharpness by increasing it's actually size! It was 570 somthing by 590 something, now it is approximately 3200 x 3200, which makes is look much sharper.
Next, I tweaked the tint to be more orange, then I added some shapes and colored them to look like two cut-out eyes (like a jack-o-lantern). When I got tha far I decided to stop and not add a mouth (actually, I added one but decided it was more mysterious-looking without it).
I would make a good use of this pumpkin.
Let's see how I am going to punch it.
