"I would rather sit on a pumpkin,
and have it all to myself,
than be crowded on a velvet cushion.”

Have a nice rest, perhaps sitting upon a pumpkin.
Lovely photos! Ah! To have elbow room!
Lovely. Hope your days are filled with joy.
Love the quote! And how you make this little pumpkin have so many looks. Are you going on a break? I hope all is well, and that you are well.
I love all of the beautiful shots of this simple subject!
although your pumpkins are beautiful art, i sure do no want to sit on one. LOL.. enjoy your rest. i do like space and not crowds.
This is lovely, and I agree with Henry.
All images are great, but the B&W ones do it for me.
Love the mix or color and black and white photos.
Blessings, Susan.
Now that's one quote I can identify with…..Love all your shots….I hope you got to have a good rest….
My sentiments exactly!
Enjoy putting that into practice!
Have a lovely rest. You pumpkins must be bigger than ours if you can sit on them.
Ah, dear Thoreau... Give me pumpkins over velvet any day too! :o) Wishing you a LOVELY rest, Susan... may you find refreshment and rejuvenation in it. ((HUGS))

Love all of these images and your processing is superb!
Hi Susan! I have seen that quote from Thoreau before and I always think...really?? They are so hard!
I hope you found a really soft place to rest, and woke refreshed. I enjoyed all the colors of these pumpkins. Or maybe you used different filters? Either way, they look so cute!
Blessings,
