This week's Photohunt Theme hosted by TNChick is Silhouette. This was actually much more challenging that I thought it would be. I take a lot of shadow pictures but rarely do photos that create silhouettes. It would actually be a great project.
This photo was taken recently at Pinnacles National Monument. It was on the Juniper Canyon Trail and one of the interesting rock formations that I found along the trail. Here is my post on Pinnacles National Monument. Note to regular readers - this is a different Pinnacles from the one we visited in Australia. This is a National Monument in California near the Salinas Valley.
Have a great weekend.

With a silhouette, that rock (formation) MUST have a name, right?! :b

Yes, I see that old man's face... it reminds me a little of the carvings on Easter Island.. at least in profile.
Mine is here.

So that is where New Hampshire's famous mountain -The Old Man in the Mountain - vanished to! Great choice, m.

What a great shot! I love it when you find shots like this - further evidence of the randomness of nature and the beauty within it. Have a great weekend.

Excellent. It looks like a person in profile, albeit one with a big nose! Nice take on the theme
