Rhys from Darlington, United Kingdomthis reminded me of something from a sci-fi movie or a text book on astrology. the scale is confusing, its small but initially I thought it was something massive, vast in the sky or in space. (does that make sense?!)nice shot. 1 May 2008 5:25am @Rhys: Yes, it makes perfect sense. Perhaps I should make more clear what it is. Thank you, Rhys. @Margie: Thank you, Margie. I appreciate that. @Craig: Many thanks, Craig.
