    "Flying Egg" describes it perfectly. Nicely done. Especially for a "lazy" photographer!

    Thanks, Trillian, again, for your nice comments!

    Great capture. "Flying Egg" - hmm, makes me think of the line, "I do not like green eggs and ham!"
    Cheers.

    I love it! Check out Astoria. I just got my post up very late, and it also has a helicopter.
