'Tis a fab photo, ESA releasing a movie of the Rosetta images taken during this Earth approach, some time today.

That's a fantastic image, it rare to get such a three dimensional-seeming image from space, but the shadows from the cloud formations are stunning.

It's just become my new desktop image.

Same here. I had to change the screen size to maintain circularity of the image. Now this text is so small I can hardly read it. It's worth it, though.

I cropped the image to the shape of the screen and it just slotted in without requiring any screen fiddling.

Actually, I ended up doing a bit of cropping, but I wanted to keep as much of the full image as possible (my monitor is large but low aspect ratio {closer to square}).

I'm getting used to the small text. The headaches are not all that bad.
