This week over at By the Way John offers up the following challenge:
For this week's photo shoot I thought we might try something striking yet simple:
Your Monday Photo Shoot: Get a picture of someone in profile. Could be you, a family member, a friend, a pet -- just as long as we see their face, from the side.
I had several nice 'profiles', but ultimately decided on this little guy...
He is a Great Horned Owl.... for some more info on Great Horned Owls, click here... or go over to National Geographic and check out the great pic they have over there.
Want to play along?? Find a picture, load it up and get over to Scalzi's place and post the link in the comments section.

I have one of those in the woods near my house. I never realized how damn big they were until I saw one flying. Cool shot!
How regal is he??? I have had the pleasure of hearing and Owl hoot only 2 times my whole life. It was a few summers ago and I was out late with the girlzzz and when I came home I could hear the owl calling from a big tree across the street from my home. I was so tickled I woke up my kids to come hear it too! Even at 2:00 am in the morning they were just as thrilled as I was to hear it! Great shot!
GREAT shot, nice presentation.

OH he is gorgeous! I found one of these little guys, a baby, in the road one day and scooped him up in a box and called a friend who works with a wildlife group to come and get him. He still has him I believe. Thanks for sharing your awesome "profile". GBU, Shelly
