Just for fun. I carved it myself, without any adult supervision. I used one of them pattern kits. The ghost is a glow in the dark ornament, taped to a black poster board.

Cute idea! Has the innocence of halloween all over it! I think you could have cropped off the left and bottom and given us more pixels to appreciate your clever set up.

Great carving. The photo is good, but I think it would have been a little more pleasing if you had not placed the top of the ghost at the same level as the top of the pumpkin. Generally speaking, I find compositions to e more pleasing when things aren't on the same level. This is a design rule regarding portraits with 2 or more people, bt I think it applies here too. JMO.

Really cute. I wish the green of the ghost was a little brigheer because he is hard to see. Adorable carving.
