I almost forgot that I made this thread, I actually have some stuff to post here.
I have been playing a lot of Elite Dangerous lately, and I gotta' say, that is one pretty game. I have 26 screenshots at the moment but I'm not going to post all of them immediately.
I guess I'll start with the first screenshot I ever took in the game. This is taken from the peak of a mountain on the surface of a small ice moon orbiting close to the rings of the outer edge of the ring system of that class 1 gas giant.
This here is in my opinion the most pretty screenshot I have taken. I am on a tiny moonlet orbiting incredibly close to an Earth-like world and that is orbiting a class 2 gas giant which is orbiting it's parent star which is orbiting the galactic core, it's all just a bunch of crazy orbit-ception. In the background you can see my ship, an ASP Explorer. This is located about 3,000 light years from Earth, so getting there was quite the journey. This is actually my current desktop background.
This is one I took yesterday, it is the largest known star behind a tiny brown dwarf. They may look like they are fairly close to each other but that brown dwarf is very close to me while the huge star is almost as far from me as Neptune is from the Sun and yet it is still huge in the sky. If that star replaced our Sun with that star then all of the inner planets as well as Jupiter and Saturn would be inside of it, and in this screenshot if you replaced that star with the Sun then the Sun would be barely distinguishable from the other stars in the background.
