Here is the final version of the space scene of mars. Of course, this image has been edited by me so it will work as is but the team in Germany is going to get the unedited EXR.
The smaller version:

And the full size version 4000* 2000. I would recommend this one. ;)

It is a combination of MOLA data, procedural landscapes, and crater shaders. ;D I wish I had added more surface detail but I did not do a very close to the ground test before rendering the full image. However, it should work for what it is needed for. The lens flare isn't the best in the world but it works. I'm no Photoshop wiz, yet ;). BTW 64 hours to render at GI 1 detail 1 AA 6 (I think).
Quite nice! I like the detail and the mist effect in the craters.
Beautiful render, I love surfaces and the general atmosphere of the image!
very beautiful view ! love your alien worlds !
Love the low mist clouds in the craters, I'd go for a slightly lower fractal displacement value but thats just me. Great image as usual.

A superb orbital view ! This makes me think to Kees Veenenbos renders (space4case.com)
Pretty frikkin' decent. I could see this on an IMAX screen.
The full size one is impressive. Cool work.
