 A local landmark here in Tulsa, OK - the Tulsa Driller. Also happenstance that the bird was flying overhead (in the upper right corner).

I missed this during the voting, but need to leave a comment now that I've stumbled upon it. In my opinion, this quite a witty shot, especially with the title! I disagree with the commenters below who suggest it would be better without the bird. I laughed out loud when I looked at this - too cute! For the technical aspects, I think I agree with Mitonski's comments below - might be worth a try at least, if you get a chance to re-do it.

Great perspective and comp! Interesting subject. Bird is a bit of a distraction but could be easily cloned out in advanced editing rules.

It's... well it's an unusual subject isn't it :o) The contrast between the yellow and the pale blue of the sky looks good. I wonder if this is something you're not likely to see again and not have the chance to re-shoot, by which I mean the yellow could maybe look a bit more vibrant if shot with the sun shining on this front side. Interesting shot, good luck.

I think that the title could have been a lot better. The picture itself is pretty great though. I'd of maybe cropped out the bird in the top right. It's a distracter.
