Nice but it somehow does not really look like an earth-like planet. 
Maybe it would help to make the view less directly against the light so 
you could actually see something of the planet surface (this would also 
be more realistic since with the sun in the field of view you would 
probably hardly see the relatively dark planet in reality).
