Well, for those of you who are lovers of Anne McCaffery's Pern, here's the planet itself in widescreen wallpaper format. Enjoy. You can see a clear view of Nerat and the lower half of Benden Weyr here as well as the enormous Southern Continent.

I do suggest taking a look at my most recent image...which is when I try to paint a small spot in Tennessee...
Its a better looking world than mine, but I am improving it.
Here's the link:

Why do I imagine this image being on the view screens of the ships when the colonists first came to Pern? I don't know, but it kind of fits it in my opinion.
Btw, this is my new wallpaper.

but I think you missed the dawn-sisters, the Yokohama, Bahrain and Buenos Aires.
But nevertheless, it's an excellent, real-looking work!
Amazing job!
My sight might be hit and miss but both of your PERN images are very nice.
Right now my sight it hit and miss. it took a AM Fan Site NKT there is also MoM too. Hans would like to add these two to his collection I am not real hot on typing hyperlinks, loss part of my just cover plan text to hyer forumsdotsrellimdotorg/indexdotphp is Meeting of the Mind Hans. and SteveB who AM decacaded SoP to
dotannemccaffreyfansdot org/forum/indexdot php NKT is how I got here.
It took your work, and another lover of Pern and Croc Hunter to drop by and relog in been wanting to but my eyes do give me problems. I keep on going.
If you see GinnyStar you are see me.
"I like both images [referring to this one and the one that include the Halo joke].
I know someone who is a friend and collector of Pernese artwork. Your image (the full version of it) reminds me of Steve B, to whom Anne McCaffrey dedicated Skies of Pern.
Right now my [website] is hit and miss."
Then I'm not sure what their next sentence is, but I know AM = Anne McCaffrey. Not sure what NKT is, but "MoM" is Meeting of Minds (an Anne McCaffrey forum).
They then go on to talk about Hans, who is a moderator, I believe, at the MoM forum.
They then say they're not good at typing hyperlinks (URLs). Then I think they recopied part of their post on accident. I think they were trying to give you this link [Link]
Personally, I've visited that site. They're very helpful and very much like to discuss Ms. McCaffrey's works.
The rest I'm not entirely sure about, but I think the above is the gist of what they were trying to say. Not sure if it's relevant to you, but I was passing by, admiring your artwork, and thought you might like a mystery cleared up. If not, well, here's another comment for ya. heh

It's amazing what you did there. That's why it got a fav. heh ^^'
Good to see an amazing artist is still alive on the face of the internet. heh. -grin-
Thanx.
One of the subtle details I really like is how the ocean changes shade due to looking at it at an angle the closer it gets to the horizon.
Nice job! ... Now give me your skills!
Its COOL.
