Wow Maureen! Gorgeous pumpkin! Wonderful colors and form!!!! The sections of vine really elevate the image! I think the reflected highlight is a little too bright and I would tone it down a bit. I would look at the cast shadow again too. It seems a little too pale close to the pumpkin. I would have more dark toning close to the pumpkin and have it transition lighter. Being picky – I would have the angle of the cast shadow go back (45 degree angle) instead of the shadow edge in line with the pumpkin. Wonderful job!!!

@doug-milne Thanks for the tips, I’ll make some adjustments for sure. I really enjoyed the intricacies of the vine, nature is so amazing
Beautiful pumpkin. I love those curly cues.
