Spectacular, Cany!

As usual, your composition and lighting are spot on. Did you happen to see the profile of the man's head in the first picture?

I don't generally look for --much less "see"-- human profiles or faces (or likenesses of whales or chipmunks or creepy crawlers of any nature) in rocks or trees or such, but sometimes....

So to answer your question: yup, I saw the profile of a man's head. In large measure, the profile was why I shot the shot.

So much so that in recognition of his awesomeness, I decided to give him an official name. He shall henceforth be known as "The Slack-Jawed Mouth-Breather Of The Switchbacks". Don't know whether that ever-so appropriate appellation will/might/oughta appeal sufficiently to/with others that the USGS (they're the ones responsible for putting names on maps) adopt it, but nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Thanks for axin', StratMan.

Of course you did. I'd never have thought otherwise from you, Cheef.
