This is a facebook link to the photo collection that German astronaut Alexander Gerst has been posting during his journey:

I don't know if they're available outside of FB but I'm going to look around and see if I find a gallery somewhere.

 

This is his blog:

All space photos are breathtaking in their own way. I loved this aurora picture most of all.

 

Thank you for sharing!

well, I've been following Alex on Facebook all along, and downloading pics to the folder that I use for my wallpaper. Here's a link to his flickr album with the view of Earth from space images:

I'm really loving these pics, and this spaceman, too :-)
