You almost never see pumpkins standing upright. Probably because it takes a lot of work to get them in such position. Usually when that happens, you see them after they have been already carved. I had a real good picture of the 1028 Standing upright, but that was after some of the color had faded due to it sitting under a foot of snow for a whole month. It had also gotten some scars from the weigh off day with people wearing boots climbing it for pictures. Then there was the little scuff I put on it with my steel toe while we were trying to get her upright, that you could see in the unedited picture. I used my awesome photoshop skills to remove most of the scars, the scuff, and returned her color to what she looked like on the contest day. I think it is a conservative picture (in that I did not enhance her beyond what she looked like at the contest)of what she would have looked like standing upright, had she not gotten the abuse.
