Corn Maze

I believe this is the last of the unpublished October pictures... our corn maze adventure.

This particular day was ridiculously sunny.  I decided to finally try a polarized filter...  I had read that these filters could be tricky, as you need to alter your camera settings to compensate for the "sunglasses" covering your lens.  Once I got the hang of it, it wasn't too bad.

You know how the sky always looks pale blue or white in photos, when in reality, it's a beautifully rich blue?  Look at the difference between the contrails and the sky above.  The polarized filter is the only thing making the sky so blue (no editing involved).  I think I'll definitely be using this filter a lot next summer.

Lucas insisted on leading the way... we got lost... for a long time.  Jack somehow stayed asleep in my Mei Tai wrap the entire time!

Lucas got his first experience peeing outdoors... I mean, we were really lost... who knew how long it would take us to find our way back to the barn?

We finally found a lookout tower that gave us a cheater's vantage point.  Okay, not really.  We were still lost.

We made it out!  ...after an hour and a half of walking in circles, we treated ourselves to the biggest roundest pumpkin we could find :)
