(It was actually patched together for use as a publicity shot.) But, there is (now) a true "blue marble" camera that photographs the Earth from a million miles out, the Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera, or EPIC. There's a large archive of photos there to flip through, a movie of our endlessly fascinating planet. http://epic.gsfc.nasa.gov/ I love to watch the home world from orbit... and it's much cheaper than the ticket to orbit.
