I think you or someone else posted this about a year ago, which is why I went to that site. I LOVE it!. I've probably spent 30-40 hours since looking at all kinds of wondrous photographs. I rarely bookmark sites like that but I sure got that one. And the pics you linked are the same ones that took me there initially.
Cool stuff.

Amazing--it really does look like something straight off of Star Trek or Dr. Who.
