I always wandered how creative humans can be. It is always surprising how simple, everyday items can be turned into great stuff. Alex Wer aka "The Pumpkin Geek" carves pumpkins for instance. The reason why I'm writing about it is that they simply look astonishing and that they are Star Trek related. As I can see, he is a great Star Trek fan and had great time at Star Trek Las Vegas Con '09. If you check his website, you can see nice pictures of pumpkins over there! I was trully amazed.
Fan part is to see in his event section Zachary Quinto, Johnatan Frakes or Rene Auberjonois standing next to the pumpkin with their carving on them! Looks really nice and funny. I bet they laughed a lot later about it. To cut it short, if you click on web site tumbnail, you'll get to see gallery of Star Trek motives, and if you check "Event" section you'll get to see Star Trek actors standing next to - you get it right - pumpkins!
Imagine what would happen if Ferengi would get a grasp on one of these and put them into replicator software! Massive sales of Star Trek pumpkins instead of DVDs or Blu Rays... Too bad I didn't know for this before Halloween this year.. :-(
There is also part with Star Trek Women characters and they look realy nice. Actually, pumpkin carvings remind me on that old style photos (the brownish ones). I wander only what will come next....
I can only imagine how would it look like to see entire movie on pumpkins instead on DVDs... Imagine, hundreds of pumpkins with movie scenes in a gallery! That would be something awesome, but I cannot imagine how much work would be involved... I bet, it would take years to do it.
