Pumpkin Inferno! Upper Canada Village

Pumpkin Inferno
What a Halloween experience!
While haunted houses are a certain kind of fun, this festival gives you the opportunity to embrace Halloween in a much calmer relaxed fashion. An orange glimmer from the pumpkins creates an electroluminescent like feel, wrapping you in a warm glow of extremely creative and talented works of art. The drive to Upper Canada Village is quite easy, with signage spread along highway 401 and throughout the towns. A few things to remember on your trip.

1. A flash light
If you want to see the fish, which are monstrous! you will need a flash light or camera with good flash, I took both my Iphone and my Canon slr, the Iphone just couldnt get the job done.

2. Make sure to clear your memory card on your camera. There is A LOT of neat displays here, 100 pics of free space is just to little if you ask me.

To begin our journey click on the video below to add some Halloween themed music. 
choose between the original or a piano version.


This is Halloween, this is Halloween, HALLOWEEN! HALLOWEEN!
Your underworld journey awaits!

 Having pumpkins carved into such dramatic pieces of art affixed over top of water is magical.

 Beavers and dam with loons swimming about.

While I love all animals, the loon is one of my favorites. When I think of wilderness in Canada, the loon and its call go hand in hand.

 Probably one of my better shots of the night. These are all raw tho, no photoshop done yet.

Its seemed to be one of those events where it just kept going, which in this case made it all the more worth it/amazing. So often you pay for something and are left wanting more at the end. This was one of those great occasions where you kept asking yourself around every corner,
"Holy jeez, theres more?"

I spent around 2 hours here, lol. Yes, a lot of that time was because of taking photos, but if I think about it, with no photos and just walking around, it would probably be a good hour+.
Definitely worth the money in my opinion.

I like this shot, with a little cropping and sharpening I think it will come out nice.

Your waiter for the evening. In all seriousness tho, they do have some type of restaurant available ( only heard about it, never went in), along with a few hot chocolate/snack shacks and a main store selling everything from ground flour to witch brooms and old time memorabilia. I must say, the store is beautiful, nice and bright, full of machines from yesteryear and lots of neat things.

BE FOREWARNED!
