Hi George,

The banner is not bad; here are a few suggestions how you can improve
it. "Hardy Heron 8.04" is a logical unit that has to be expressed
visually as well. Group them tightly. The "has landed" less important
and this fact also has to be expressed visually; perhaps with a
smaller and different typefaces; you can also emphasize this by
separating off from the center of interest. Something like the
following sketch.
