    So... The Black Canyon of the Gunnison was formed by water at an average rate of 1" every 100 years.... The hike from rim to the river is just under 2,000 ft, you do the math, it's antique.

    My legs by the end of the hike down and back up feel antique as well. The "hike" is only a mile long.

    As last week's winner, should I quote this week's entries and announce the winner or just stand by until @medic2230 is on deck?

    I wouldn’t. I did that once and all hell broke loose. Like I broke some unwritten rule or something.

    I was impressed by some of the subject matter of the entries along with their creativity. While each individual entry has its strong points which I can make a reasonable argument for, the one that I kept going back to because of it's creativity and implementation of concept, is the photo by @Z7Xtreme. Composition, concept, along with the personal story made this my choice for this week's winner. :thumbsup:
    Hat's off to @snapspinner , @jknubbles , @Canadian Joe , and @Celery21 for making the decision harder. :hattip:

    @dweldy424 , don't be hard on yourself since your photo was intriguing because it represented the classic style and format of a photo you'd see in the teens or twenties, including the blurriness which I took as your end goal. :)

    I look forward to being a participant again..
