Patriotic Pumpkin Party
Prompt
A Halloween pumpkin with a horrified face that serves as a poutine bowl. Melting cheese curds are coming out of its mouth, there are French fries coming out of the hole on top. Brown gravy sauce is pouring out of its eyes, nose and makes a puddle of sauce.
Theme
It’s october and Halloween is coming soon. I know Halloween is not celebrated everywhere in the world, and that’s the reason I wanted to make this challenge.
The goal of the challenge is to have a carved Halloween pumkin that represents your country, state, province or city. As I live in Quebec, I made sure my Halloween pumpkin had something to do with Poutine, one meal that Quebec is known for. Please in your answer, post what country / territory / city your pumpkin represents. The carvings could show a flag, your national animal, or whatever you think represents where you live.
Voting process
This challenge will follow a slightly different format. Everyone can submit their image to this post. At the end of the week all images will be collected and shared in a new voting post wherein people can vote on their favorite image. This will be up for at least 24 hours before a winner is made.
There are no extra points to be earned, OP will decide on a winner in case of a tie.
I hope this format will give everyone the opportunity to take their time and have an equal chance at earning votes. It can be a one-off if this turns out to be too time consuming or impractical.
Rules
- Follow the community’s rules above all else
- One comment and image per user
- Embed image directly in the post (no external link)
- Workflow/Prompt sharing encouraged but not required (we’re all here for fun and learning)
- OP will declare winner in case of a tie
- The challenge runs for at least 7 days from now on
- Down votes will not be counted
- Voting and final scoring will be done in a separate post.
Scores
At the end of the challenge the image with the most votes, wins! It’s that simple this time :)
The winner gets to pick the next theme. As always, have fun everyone!

ni dieu, ni maître and no countries either. Apatriotic terrestrial here. This web is “my” city
Love it!
I’m not a fan of patriotism and I don’t like to expose my personal background on Lemmy. Here is a pumpkin representing Mordor.
literally exactly my thoughts
Fine by me! Note that I’m not a fan of patriotism either but the word worked to create the alliteration in the title. I wanted a challenge limitation that would be personal to people. Didn’t think some wouldn’t want to disclose their location. Thanks for submitting an image anyway!
Prompt: Photograph, of a Halloween pumpkin, made of delft blue porcelain, dark, dramatic lighting --ar 4:3 --v 6.1imagine that with a candle inside. This would be beautiful as a real tangible object
I did make one with a candle inside and with some local food, but in the end I felt the added food was thematically bit too much like trollivier’s poutine pumpkin.
I’m sure that if Halloween were a bigger thing here, you’d find this in every souvenir shop. This stuff is so pervasive :)

i said “these are beautiful”. my partner replied with a “no way we’re having things like that here” 🤣
A place called Turtle Island… until the Europeans came; hence a juxtaposition of Native American and Technology~ together in harmony.
I might eat that. Finished a hotdog poutine yesterday. Lol
Omnom!

The voting page is up! Feel free to head over and vote for your favorite image.
only 4 participants 😯
are people busy or is it the format change that’s responsible for decreasing numbers?
response must come from the absentee regulars i suppose
I was surprised about that as well, it’s not like a lot has changed. Maybe it’s just a slow week?
I’ve been quite busy myself lately.
