The New York Daily News showcased an art studio that does some really amazing pumpkins last Sunday. They etch images into the skin, really intricate designs. The City skyline, portraits, sport logos and stuff. Incredible work.
The most amazing Halloween decorations I've ever seen are pieces made to look like the bark of your tree. They make it look like there are faces and hands rising out of the bark, or that there are things crawling out of it. There is even one that looks like a doorway, with the door ajar and light leaking out. Really cool stuff.
