I have a screenshot of 2 capital ships in a conflict zone for the most recent community goal and one of my first solo cyclops kill from a while ago

I play Elite because I love space and its the best looking space game I know of. I love the thargoid content and exploring the galaxy to see cool sights. I have also been happy with the new ship additions to the game and I think I am about to go get a Corsair.
Got some selfies with some of my exobio, a bug that made my commander look like Mystique, and a picture with a cool nebula close to the bubble.
My favorite build right now is my Imperial Courier. Its small and fast. It boosts up to 851 which makes getting down and up off of planets very fast. It can also fly at over 300 with the landing gear down which makes doing exobiology very fast. The 2 downsides are the small fuel tank and the shields are kind of weak. They won't save you from smashing into the ground at 500 but they do protect you from fast landings well enough.
To reach these speeds you need performance enhanced thrusters which can only be bought from some engineers at their bases and can only be applied to small ships. I believe the largest size is 3A.
Here is a link to the build in coriolis and some nice screenshots.

This is an example of the POV my commander had a few weeks ago as I was rocketing towards the surface as I was looking at my phone before I noticed and pulled up too late. Don't text and fly commanders...
Another dumb way to die would be getting a screenshot from the surface of a VERY hot planet that you can only survive about 2 minutes outside your ship on. Luckily I didn't die although I got a bit close.
Here is a screenshot from the cockpit of my carrier during a hyperspace jump
My first Cyclops solo kill
The first stellar phenomena I ever found
I think posting screenshots of atmospheric planets from the surface of sunrise/sunset would be nice to see. This isnt exactly from the planet surface but its basically the same idea of a nice sunrise through the atmosphere
I would also like to see people post screenshots of landable planets with rings from the surface of the planet.
Another one would be a screenshot of some of the weird interstellar phenomena you can find out there like this.
This is a small moon that had a huge mountain that was about 6-8km tall with some planets lined up in the sky
