Aging Gracefully Is Overrated, Age Like One Of These Motherfuckers: 

The Great Jack O’Lantern Blaze

Held every year in New York, the Great Jack O’Lantern Blaze is a 25-night-long Halloween event featuring some 5,000 hand-carved, illuminated pumpkins arranged into dinosaurs, witches, zombies, and other spooky forms. Via Instagram:

Although only associated with Halloween as we know it today since the late 1800s, the tradition of gourd carving dates back to the 18th and 19th centuries in rural Ireland and England. People created jack o’lanterns for the old holidays of Samhain and All Souls’ Night when spirits were thought to be the most active. Grotesque faces carved into the objects were meant to frighten away any ghouls seeking to do harm.

Sleeping Giants, Weeping Plums: Japanese Landscape Photography Hidenobu Suzuki

Contemporary theater, art and music stimulate the brain and liven people’s mood. But emotional art heals people and leads society towards harmony. So, I took the challenge to capture emotions with my camera.

Using only rational thinking when creating photography results in better attention to the detail—but there is a tendency to get bored. Working with feelings and looking for emotions is more relaxing and ultimately, more powerful.
