the barn owl

I've thought long and hard about the Dogwood 52 week challenge this 5th week:
"Technical: Ten Shots: Shoot 10 shots of the same subject. Each shot should be from a different angle, distance, and focal length. Share your favorite image from the set."

At last I came up with something doable - I think. This is my favourite shot out of the ten. The other 9 shots are in a collage as suggested on 365:

I set the camera on rich tone monochrome so I could also use this for flashofred2017 and on 1:1 to easily make a collage in Picasa.

Thanks to my son, who is more a mathematician and a musician, for his helpful photographic suggestions for this task!
I love the shaoes and lines...intriguing PoV

Annie, thanks for your visits and comments on my efforts! Ray wanted a sculpture for the back garden and we took ages and ages finding what he wanted. At last we saw this barn owl, in reconstituted marble, at an exhibition of garden art at the arboretum near here. I only think of angels as mythical but I sometimes find myself calling the sculpture an angel instead of an owl!

Looking at the collage of 9 I think you are right, this one is beautiful.

Babs, yes, this is the one I would just have taken of the barn owl. I'm participating in the Dogwood challenge but some of the challenges seem, to me anyway, a little contrived.
