Good wallpaper pics of our red sun from earth

Hi Folks,

Does anyone have a good source of space pictures in particular pictures of our sun in a few billion years viewed from earth?
I tried google, not many good ones.

Thanks

Pictures? You mean drawings, right?

drawings would be priceless but nice digitally enchanced would suffice :-)

Happy to oblige.

Attached is a pic of the sun as seen from Earth approx. 7.6 billion years from now.

Here's a less pessimistic view:

Since in a few billion years the sun's radius will be outside the present Earth orbit, the picture would be bright white without any real detail. Very very bright.

its sad when you think about it...all the chaos that's happening in the world...at the end of it all it just doesn't matter!
