Pumpkins of Cave Springs

This morning I went to Cave Spring Historic Site in Kansas City. I was expecting a beautiful morning of shooting nature shoots, pictures of the cave and the ruins. To my delight, there were hundreds of jack-o-lanterns left over from Saturday's Pumpkins on Parade. This unique photo opportunity made my morning even more fun and wonderful than I had expected.

The creativity of the children who made these jack-o-lanterns was impressive, and there were so many amazing photos to take. So, I warn you, there are a lot of pumpkin pictures here. After the first edit, I still had over 140 photos. Here are my favorites.
