some time ago someone posted a link to a site with some very high resolution sky images. i remember the lower res versions were free, but the ultra high ones were for sale.

anyone have an idea? searching cgtalk for 'sky map resolution' and variations brings up far too many hits ;)

yep, thats it.. but it looks like they started to watermark all of their images now.

oh well, thanks though...


is there an alternative site with similar sized skies?

Vocanson as a bunch of Terragen cubemaps. Not very realistic though.
