Here it is. Finally done. My entry for the science fiction wallpaper contest. [link]

I made it in time.

Wallpaper pack includes:

1920x1200
1600x1200
1680x1050
1440x900

Comments, critiques and 's are always appreciated.

Enjoy!

Edit: Some cahnges to the sun's surface and to the gases blown of the planet. Also changed the shadow on the planet (just a tiny bit) Hope the picture improved.

Edit2: After looking at this picture for some days more, I wasn't satisfied with the sun's surface any more. Changed it drastically and also the sun's size. It's way bigger now. Somehow more "realistic" I think. Anyway... all changes made within the contest running time. So this is it. Finished! No really... Finished.
