Thanks all. I tried a b/w conversion but it didn't look good with the dark deck so I would like to try again using a different b/g some time or different colored gourds. CJ

Well done CJ - It would be fun to experiment with this using different compositions for nice fall picys! jano

You have to be out of your gourd (I couldn't help it :-)
Nice comp, interesting shapes... they'd make great B & W subjects you can focus your attention on shape and form. Nice work. Markjay

Thanks Rod! The Gourd Family (Cucurbitaceae) includes hundreds of species of vines which bear coiled, climbing tendrils and some of the most unusual fruits in the world. I read that the total number of species may exceed 700 - here's only 3! :-) CJ

I don't know wot gourds are but you make them look great. The lighting here is terrific so is the composition. It even has tension from the different runs of flooring. Great work Carole:-)
