You are right.
I was going to post the crack in the asphalt road that runs down the centre of my street but I didn't want to deceive anyone.
The problem is that the Grand Canyon is about 3,000 miles from my front door and I don't have a long enough telephoto.

In the interest of moving the game along.....thats the north rim, dead ahead and about 200 feet above our height when this shot was taken....according to our pilot. Never was sure if we were having our leg pulled or not.
Apologies for the quality.

Given that we went across in a chopper, please show me a helicopter

Gus,

I didn't expect you to jump out of the plane.

Very well. Free falling, diving or landing.

Nope, I got guys with parachutes falling from the sky, I have the motorized skydivers, hang gliders, put no free falling skydivers. I can't wait to see someone who does though!

Paratroopers

Technically, these are military parachutists, not skydivers.
And they are nearing a landing, not landing.
But I hope I am helping to move the thread along.
As these servicepeople are Army or Army National Guard, could we please see someone or something from another branch of the armed services — including the Coast Guard — or a nonmilitary form of service, such as the Peace Corps or AmeriCorps?
And to all who have served or are serving, thanks very much!

I'd like to see someone catching a fish or at least fishing. Catching would be better.

Here is what you have to do before eating the fish...you have to clean it! This was taken at the Ocean Beach Pier in San Diego. The fisherman cleaning the fish in the sink on the pier. Sorry if you've seen this before...but it was handy soo..


Well, since we are now on the topic of food...I'd like to see a Fruit Tree with Fruit
