Title: 2008 - The Year In Photographs
Post by: Double Cross on December 20, 2008, 12:57:06 PM
Some absolutely amazing pictures here, and some to really make you think about the things that happen on this planet ... some you'll want as a Desktop, some you might not even be able to look at:

DC, there is some fantastic photos there, but the one I think encapsulates mans blood thirsty quest for news is this one:

The best links ever posted, thanks DC.

Liked the one of the astronaut looking out the window of the space station, wonder what was going through her head. The Cassini pics and the shuttle launch were good.  (Went to see three of these launches but only got to see one because some eejit left a bolt on the mudguard once and storms on the second time and when I did get to see one it was from Titusville miles away.  Some truly amazing pictures of the world in which we live and apart rom the gory ones and the amazing ones like the ship on the beach the one that stands out for me is the one below.  Surely this must be on Mick O'Dwyers Christmas shopping list?
