UNPLUGGED Flickr Pick: Good Morning from Bowen Island

UNPLUGGED is a state of mind.

It's that point in your consciousness where you can feel at one with nature, escaping the trappings of the day-to-day to an almost dream-like place where nothing else seems to exist besides you and your natural surroundings. It is our opinion here at VIA that Vancouver holds a unique place in the civilized world in that reaching this state often requires no more effort than simply pulling off to the side of the road, pocketing your keys and taking a few steps into the forest.

I am a sucker for sunsets/sunrises. There is nothing more awesome than that dramatic moment when the sun meets the horizon and colors our world in a way that says, "hey, don't forget about me, I can turn an ordinary landscape into a psychedelic event without one bit of elicit pharmacopeia.

This beautiful shot submitted by Vanessa Griffiths of a morning view from Bowen Island exemplifies my point. It looks like a Good morning from Bowen Island indeed.

UNPLUGGED is a state of mind.

Good morning from Bowen Island!
