Posted October 16, 2018 (edited) Working on it! I found the object I want to photograph, but now my camera demands the batteries to be changed (need to buy some). Edited October 16, 2018 by Ruby Eyes Share this post Link to post
Posted October 18, 2018 So, this is the only item that I own that was created by my father, shortly before he left the family and the country (the latter not an easy feat in the early 80's in the GDR but he survived.) He didn't finish this little scene, but you can see what was intended Share this post Link to post

Posted October 24, 2018 My husband and I went to see the new Halloween movie this weekend and decided to carve the classic jack-o'-lantern from the opening credits. I haven't carved a pumpkin in a few years but we had a lot of fun with this one! Maybe I'll do a bigger display with more pumpkins next year. Share this post Link to post
