Our kitty. Any idea how long it took to get a decent picture of an all black cat without looking like a single black blur? Finally got the perfect lighting.

John Hurt's performance was amazing, but the film itself was so-so. Most of the critical acclaim for the film was before it was even released as I recall. It didn't seem very socially relevant at the time and is less so now.
 
The side topic of the movie 1984, and the discussion of the politically oriented alteration of a scene, has been removed. Please remember that discussions evolving from image themes can reach the level of a thread hijack, or a two-way discussion of a topic other than the thread's topic.
 
Gotta love those pics!

Here is a link to the one I have been using, lots to chose from.

Well, to continue the theme of astronomy related wallpaper, some of the images from CICLOPS are amazing. Check out http://www.ciclops.org
The pictures of Saturn's equinox are stunning, in my opinion, and there are lots of great images in the "imaging diary".

These images take a lot of work for sure, it's much more than just snapping a photo. The astronomers also get to have a bit of fun when it comes to picking the colours displayed in the images like the ones you will often see from hubble. :sssh:
 
Nothing fancy, really. This is just what happens to be on there right now. I change it alll the time. It may not look like much here, but it looks fantastic on my monitor. In fact, most everything looks superb on it. A Samsung 23' LCD @ 1920x1080.

I have the same monitor and you're right it looks fantastic but have a go of BeamHeads first picture (thanks very much BeamHead) - it's real WOW.

Some fantastic pics here
Cheers

I knew there was something odd about that pic. Full image makes it a bit more obvious. Good one! 😀
 
It becomes clear when you check out a bigger version of the pic. But I've made it obvious. On the left, a turtle that is clearly smiling at you. On the right, a tiny, tiny troll. Bigger version, you can see his tiny head, his tiny legs, even the tiny black vest he's wearing.
