A general view of the beach at the resort town of Cancun in Mexico's state of Quintana Roo as Hurricane Wilma approaches October 19, 2005. Described by meteorologists as potentially catastrophic, Wilma dumped rain on the Honduran coast and whipped up winds that briefly reached nearly 175 mph (280 km). Authorities began evacuating 10,000 people in the Mexican coastal state of Quintana Roo and tourists lined up at the airport to escape the beach resort of Cancun, where the storm was due to hit on Thursday.

4. It does. If somebody did paint it, they would be thought to have taken

artistic license with it, though. It is so surreal.

9. I used a plug-in in Firefox to zoom in on it.

It's not bad as a desktop image, but it would be really nice if I could find it with a just a little greater resolution.

7. Just save the picture........

and select the "fill entire screen" option (or whatever it is) for your desktop. The resolution may be a bit off though, I think I'm going to give it a try too. I love pics like that.

10. In Firefox, you can just right click and do that.

I was just looking for a higher-res version.
