Terragen is a free photo realistic landscape generating program.
With it you can make clouds, mountains, sunbeams, rivers, lakes, planets and all kinds of cool things.

The mountain, sky and background of the header were made with Terragen and I added grasses, the leopard, the deer and the bird with PSP tubes!
