24. A nice Halloween orange tint to the sky in your photo.

Here's an idea,...

Go over to Mnt. Washington and put a big huge enormous pumpkin right on top of the peak of the mountain. Then light a candle in the pumpkin.

Then go home and see if you can spot the pumpkin from your back deck at your place.

You might need to hunt down one of those 5,000lb pumpkins that win the country fair ribbon prize to see the pumpkin from that distance..

Take a photo with the huge pumpkin with the burning candle on Mnt.Washington and post it to DU.
