UNPLUGGED Flickr Pickr: Alouette River Walk

(Click for Map)

There's no doubt about it, it's fall.

It will never cease to amaze me how so much can change in such a small amount of time.

I decided to take a look back in time for this week's Pickr and came across this image by Ron Hole, made around this time last year. Now, I'm still feeling a wee bit philosophical (if I dare put my thoughts in that category!) about the changing of the seasons and I really thought that this image was a good send-off for summer and an attempt at a look into what the future might hold, however tenuous that hold may be...either we can almost just make out where we're headed or are starting to lose sight of where we've just been. Besides that this is quite simply a beautiful image and well, I'm a sucker for fog!

Thank you Ron. Do make sure to stop by Ron's photostream for a look at many more beautiful images.

I would like to take this opportunity to say a big huge congratulations to VIA, Unplugged, Bob and Michael for forging an exciting new Community Partnership with BC Parks. Read all about it here and check out BC Parks beautifully made and super interesting Great Ranger Experience videos here. Great work everyone. It's all go!

There was a lot of amazing photography in the pool this week folks, please keep posting and spreading the word about the Unplugged Flickr Pickr.

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
