Sorry, I'm a day late picking the winner. Too many good entries! I changed my mind 3 times.  |

"Preconceptions dropped away / As he stood atop Bartolome. / For Darwin, a glimpse of nature's plan: / Ascent of stairs, Descent of Man."
The winner: e_journeys / Elissa Malcohn!
Congratulations Elissa! Contact me by email or FB or Twitter, and send me your mailing address! I'll get that print in the mail for tomorrow.
For all of you who participated, thank you. Some of my other favourites were by Adrian, coturnix, soniah, Joseph and Arvind. I loved the imagery by everyone about standing on giant's shoulders (appropriate with the little stairs - never thought of it that way before) and the humour in so many entries. Tommy's Lady Gaga comment was great on Grammy night.
