The original was taken in a 1080x600 window, so it's not terribly high res, but at least it's in png format.

I followed this pack of hunters en route to Labiar in the third octant. The lead ship and the Gecko flew sedately, but the pilot of the sidewinder would suddenly decelerate whizzing past me and, just as quickly, hit the thrusters and zoom past his companion.

Re: Screenshots
Yeah, following packs, whether they be hunters, bandits, or even escorts, can be good fun. I like to watch them mock-jousting with each other.
