The pics look great, indeed they seem colorful. Maybe you just take care of your grass, it is quite green.

You do a nice job with the props... coffin and ghouls and tombstones. I know what you mean about never having enough time to do all that you envision. Every Halloween I say the same thing, but on the bright side, that means you'll have something to look forward to the next year.

Good luck with your move, I hope you find a new place suitable for haunting. That's definitely a house buying consideration for me. Not "how many bathrooms?" or "does it have hardwood or carpet?" or "does it have a pool?"

Nope the most important thing to ask is... "is the yard suitable for the sort of Halloween display I want to do?" (and I suppose also "does the house have enough storage to put all these tombstones during the off-season?")

Thanks for the comments Ryan and all the rest.

lol @ my grass. Its the one thing I splurge on as my neighbor is a professional Landscaper. He cuts me a deal and I actually pay him to keep the front yard up. It would be dead if I ahd to take care of it.

The Camera i use is a older Sony Cybershot I bought 4 or 5 years ago now. Its nothing special. I did however learn to use a tri-pod this year and played with the night time settings and used the timer. I tend to be a bit shaky and found the timer combined with the tripod make the pics turn out much better.
