Thanks, folks!

Michelle - I find the iPhone only works really well in well-lit situations. High contrast scenes don't translate well at all on the phone in my experience; nice, even lighting seems better; not too much bright and not too much deep shadow.

That said, I still ran this through NIK for some polishing & tweaking... ;) #10629994

Thank you both! I hope to get back there someday, with my regular camera gear, and spend a lot more time examining the whole plaza of buildings where this Egg sits... #10654387
