Image height to stay responsive with no scroll

Simple question here but struggling with the best way to accomplish what I want... I have an image that I am trying to keep centered in the browser and responsive. Setting width to 100%, the image responds perfectly (horizontally). What I am having trouble with is the height. I do not want the browser to ever scroll and have the image, with correct ratio, at center, with 20px padding.

Dropbox viewer has a great example of exactly what I am trying to accomplish, see here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/7zmau5ckx9qe2q1/P-20131215-00017_HiRes%20JPEG%2024bit%20RGB.jpg

UPDATE BELOW WITH MORE RECENT CODE

I have a demo here of what I have so far (if you crunch the browser vertically, the scroll bar will appear): http://jsfiddle.net/k7JG5/7/

HTML

<div id="top_nav">Logo Here</div>
<div id="img_wrap">
<center><img src="http://goldenleafdesigns.com/images/random-  images/soul_id_select_image1.jpg" /><center>
</div>

CSS

body {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
background-color: #000;
}
#top_nav {
height: 44px;
width: 100%;
background-color: #FFF;
    text-align: center;
    line-height: 44px;
}
#img_wrap {
max-width: 100%;
max-height: 100%;
padding: 20px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-bottom: 0px;
margin-left: auto;
}
img {
outline: 0;
max-width: 100%;
    max-height: auto;
}

so, whats the best way to accomplish the height to stay responsive with no scroll?

Maybe this works for you:

http://jsfiddle.net/4LNND/

#img_wrap {
    max-width: 100%;
    max-height: 100%;
    padding: 20px;
    margin-top: 0px;
    margin-right: auto;
    margin-bottom: 0px;
    margin-left: auto;
    position:absolute;
    bottom:0;
    left:0;
    right:0;
    top:44px;
}
#img_wrap img {
    outline: 0;
    max-width: 100%;
    max-height: 100%;
    display:block;
}

There are a bit more complicated ways to do it, this is the simplest

jsBin demo

HTML:

<div id="img_wrap"></div>

CSS:

#img_wrap{
  position:absolute;
  top:    20px;
  right:  20px;
  bottom: 20px;
  left:   20px;
  background: url('pathToImage.jpg') no-repeat center center fixed;
  background-size: contain;
}

// Or instead of contain use cover if you don't mind the image being cut-off
