Hieroglyphic Translations

We were asked to prepare a high resolution image depicting the term "Zeret Bird" for use as a template for the name of a boat. The name is a reference the opera Akhnaten (by Philip Glass) in which his father Amenhotep III is said to "flap his wings like a zeret bird, He goes to the sky, He goes to the sky, On the wind".

The name is particularly fitting because "Zeret" is a term for the Egyptian black kite and the vessel is a beautiful black boat with brown sails. I am sure that the Ancient Egyptians, being keen sailors and lovers of beauty, would have approved.
