&lt;p&gt;"a word from above" has won the "best skyscape image 2009" in a "redbubble" online photo and art community photo challenge.&amp;#160; It was voted for by members of the "skyscapes" group and was amongst some superb entries.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.galleriamancuso.com/awordfromaboveprints.htm"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.galleriamancuso.com/a-word-from-above.jpg"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I remember when I first saw it out the window, I did a double take as I couldn't believe what I was seeing.&amp;#160; Usually in these situations, by the time it takes to get your camera and put the right lens on it's gone, but this just kept hanging around, begging to be taken.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is the over all view of what I was seeing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.galleriamancuso.com/thebigpictureprints.htm"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.galleriamancuso.com/a-word-the-big-picture.jpg"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
