I love the results! Topaz Glow was the perfect choice here. It really added a new dimension to your image. Spooky?

Those pumpkins do seem to belong there and they seem to have multiplied. Great job!

Helen,

Really nice combination of filters -- subtle yet effective. Great job!

BillieJean,

This starter image was begging for the Posterize effect and you delivered. Great job! I like the whimsical touch (face) you added.
