We’d like to thank everyone who submitted photos of their pumpkin creations to SDtoday’s carving contest. We loved your submissions, and we don’t want to choose just one winner. Instead, we’re handing out superlatives to the masterpieces that really put us in the Halloween spirit.
Best jack-o'-lantern: “Talmadge - a nice place to live” by Matthew W.
This glowing gourd captures serious local spirit and the beauty of the Talmadge community while integrating the Halloween theme.
Best painted pumpkin: “Beautiful painted florals and leaves” by Cheryl K.
Because during Halloween season in San Diego, flowers are still blooming and the leaves are hanging out.
Wildest pumpkin: “Untitled” by anonymous
We don’t know how this creation found us, but we’re sure glad it did. Much like the pumpkin, our minds are blown by the dedication — props and everything. If you made this pumpkin, please let us know.
