A close-up photographic view of a shiny black finisher’s medal for the “Haunted Halfsy” Halloween Half Marathon resting on rough-weathered wooden planks. The medal features a grinning cartoon ghost and a carved pumpkin, with raised metallic details and a glossy enamel finish in vibrant oranges, purples, and acid greens. The attached ribbon, patterned with tiny bats and candy corn, spills diagonally across the frame. Soft, diffused studio lighting from the side creates subtle highlights on the metal and gentle shadows in the wood grain. Shot from a slightly elevated angle with shallow depth of field, the background falls into a soft blur of scattered autumn leaves, creating a playful, celebratory mood.

Rochester, MN

A nighttime photographic scene of a “Haunted Halfsy” mile marker sign standing beside a quiet paved trail that disappears into dark, densely wooded trees. The sign is shaped like a tall, cartoon tombstone and clearly displays a large number “13” with dripping slime typography and tiny illustrated bats. A ring of carved pumpkins with exaggerated, silly faces circles the base, each lit from within, casting warm, dancing light onto fallen leaves. Overhead, string lights with tiny ghost-shaped bulbs create a gentle, whimsical glow that fades into the surrounding darkness. Captured at eye level with a shallow depth of field, the sign and pumpkins are in crisp focus while the background dissolves into mysterious shadows, balancing eerie and playful moods.
