Coastal Halloween Pumpkins Above a Stormy Autumn Sea

Photograph a restrained Halloween still life overlooking an autumn coastline in a 16:9 landscape composition for a nature photo essay. Set two small carved pumpkins on a stable dry stone wall in the right foreground, their battery-lit faces facing slightly toward the sea. Beyond them, show rugged cliffs, wind-brushed grasses, and distant white surf under a breaking cloud bank. Use natural late-day light, muted slate blue, weathered stone gray, and concentrated pumpkin orange. Capture salt-worn textures and directional wind without exaggerating the weather. Keep the horizon level, the decorations temporary, and the surrounding landscape dominant, with no people near dangerous cliff edges.
