uplifting / daunting


L - Nikon / T - Nikon

When T sent me this photo late Sunday night I knew I had to put it together with my photo from my Sunday morning walk. Her's being a late night scary walk in the dark, with friends... mine being an cheerful walk in nature, alone. My walk had a one little obstacle, her walk was had several. I did not get lost, she did. / my best friend came into town this weekend from charleston and on her way back home to atlanta. it was great to have her back in town – i hadn't seen her since i moved into my house here. she's such a breath of fresh air in my life. however few and far between our interactions it's always nice to see her. since happenings in my little town were slow, we decided to make a twenty minute road trip with one of my other great friends to watkinsville, where washington farms and their famous corn maze are located. we got there around eleven and.. we did not make it out alone. by the time the field was closing at eleven, we were nowhere near the exit. none of us had ever been to a corn maze before and it was actually a lot of fun, however a little daunting! i would really like to go back and conquer it.. maybe when it's a little lighter outside!

what a contrast ... her posture even suggests uncertainty while the path in the woods invites

so cool!

that second shot reminds me so much of the movie, "signs"--which happens to be one of my favorite movies! really cool.

these are great .... I have never been in a corn maze and I'm not sure I would like it .... but I would go for a walk in the woods with you.

I just took my son to Washington Farms for all their kid's stuff! I saw the corn maze online, and it looks so fun! But I think I'll wait until he's older for that. Great photos. Great pair.

There is a farm not to far from here that has a corn maze...and a haunted house..and a train ride etc...but I haven't been through the maze in several years. Now I'm thinking I should go back! Was a lot of fun...except for the guy with the chainsaw that came out of nowhere to spook us unsuspecting wanderers!
