I'm not completely sure that it's legal for me to choose an image by a fellow VIAUnplugged writer (we've never actually met so I promise I'm not playing favourites with this!) but I loved this one so much that I just couldn't pass it up. Also, I thought it would be a nice continuation of the Unplugged post Chris wrote yesterday about the Artists for Conservation Festival, which is being held at the top of Grouse Mountain, make sure to give it a read.

I love the SkyRide up the side of Grouse, there really is no better view of our fair city and Chris's beautiful photograph is a testament to that. He managed to create an excellent composition with the last bit of sunset light and the drama of settling clouds, a familiar but always breathtaking scene around here.

Thanks for this one Chris and of course for all of your brilliant Unplugged posts!

LOCATION: Grouse Mountain

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.
