Mountain Screenshots and Favourite Aspect of 3.0 so Far?

Driving around Planet 3D in HR 5457 this evening, flying and bouncing between peaks, hoovering up all the Telerium and Tungsten I could find and found myself really amazed by the new surfaces and procedural mountains, even at a lowly 1080P (might be time to start a 2080 fund). I think it has to be my favourite thing about the Q1 update, along with extra material storage. Really looking forward to some of the rumoured new discovery mechanics and other gameplay still to come.

It'd be cool to see anyone else's mountain shots, if you've got some post them here and tell us your favourite thing about 3.0 so far and what your looking forward to most in the coming updates.

Frontier Really nailed the planet colors in this update.

So far, I believe that with the engineers revamps and crime and punishment this is one of the best updates so far.

Keep em coming team !

Agreed they look totally realistic now. When you compare it to the real thing (see below) I can hardly tell the difference and the mountains up close seem to look better too but maybe that's just because of the colours. I hope they're not getting too despondent with all the complaints because there's some really awesome stuff in there.

Sorry, no picture to share, but yes, the new planet colours look awesome from space! And even up close they pretty great too.

The SRV's tracks are also really nice (varying in colour across the different terrain), and (not sure when they added this) the SRV's wheels are even covered in dust with the same colour as the ground (if you look closely).
 
Indeed when graphics are set to ultra it really comes to life. Wish I could run it on that permanently but my card just can't hack it! Looked at upgrading recently but the damn miners buying up all the GPU's have sent prices to the moon!
 
The greatest ED "Mini Mountain" ever, alas no more :(
(yes I know all those anomolies were removed for a reason,but still I wished they were still here)
