Thought this was quite an interesting picture - taken in the last few days by NASA's Polar Explorer.

Nah...


That's Turbs running to catch the bus.

Sorry to lower the tone, I do agree it's a good set of images however.

Got any that would be suitable for a wallpaper. They are excellent.

Looks like the scene the last time I told a joke.

How big do you want it? I was using a beta version of the rendering software which crashed when I wanted to make it larger; that bug has now been fixed, so I can recreate it at (pretty much) any size.

Otherwise, I'll make it 1200 pixels high (which should suit most people's needs).

[richard_tricky]

Images are available from http://www.tribbeck.com/lightwave/ - although these were higher resolution than I had originally anticipated.

I've had to crop them a bit, but if you need to adjust it (and have the know-how), I've also provided the high res one that I used.
