Cannible Pumpkin
Okay, so there is 2 things happening her. First off, That large pumpkin is a cannible, it ate the little one! Second, I am a ghost in this photo. Here's how I did it. No, this is not achieved with long exposures, as they were only about 5 seconds long. This is not an over lapping effect either. I used the flash, plus a semi-long exposure. The pumpkin was flashed, then I jumped in for the last few seconds of the shot.
Why? A long exposure with the pumpkins caused an enormous ammount of light distortion between the red light in the little pumpkin, and a white light in the large pumpkin. A flash of the camera balanced the colors out. I figured the only way to get myself in there was to use a longer exposure.
