I mean, if I was Photoshopping these, would I have bothered with such a detail? Also, my "red dog" one was taken with a LED thingie which changes colors, and I snapped the photo a little after it was true red (so it's more "Fuschia Dog"). If I was faking them, that red would have looked a lot more like a fire engine... :-) -CW Michale -

I can post photos with the lights on later to prove it, but I'm trying to get this year's column done right now.... The only Photoshopping done is to fix fuzzy images or remove glare spots in the photos. But the pumpkins are real! :-) -CW Michale -
