These pumpkin carvings require skill, ingenuity, and admittedly, more time than most of us have. But maybe some of them will inspire a creative wielding of the knife and those pumpkin seeds will start flying!

If you've got a cleverly-carved pumpkin in your window, send me a picture (acarone@kpbs.org) and we'll post some of them before the Halloween weekend. In the meantime, check out these pumpkin feats!

I admire the obvious fandom at work in this pumpkin Death Star.
