Desktop Friday: The Thirteenth
Photography February 16th, 2007Each and every Friday I post a desktop wallpaper for all of you readers to have a change of scene, and get a different perspective of life through your LCD monitor. The image is taken using my Canon 350D DSLR. Photography really interests me and this gives me a nice way to showcase some work, while giving readers something for nothing.
The wallpaper is sized at a resoultion of 2560×1600 pixels, big enough to be used on a 30 inch Apple Cinema Display, so no-one will miss out. If you’re not lucky enough to own a 30″ Cinema Display, use the “Stretch to fill screen” option in Mac OSX.
Today’s desktop caption is: Purple

Feel free to leave any comments about this wallpaper below, it’d be nice to get a comment or two from people who decide to use it, have a great weekend, and enjoy.

Wow I really like this one. Beautiful colors and I like how the blurriness of the second flower contrasts with the sharpness of the petals that are closer.
Great picture!

glenn, you’re a pretty good photographer but you need to be a bit more gutsy. slow down on all the macro photos of plants. take some photos with lots of depth of field. like a city scene from a lookout or an ocean shot.
start taking photos of people as well. maybe some people on the beach or something.

I like this one a lot. It might be my favorite of the ones you’ve done so far.

The actual photo is very nice, but I’d like to see a real preview in the blog entry.

Sure shadownight, I’ll change that later tonight. I decided to experiment with a different way of wallpaper previews this week, but I’ll go back to the old ways.

Pretty much they are free to use for personal use on your computer, if you’d like to use them for anything other than your computers desktop wallpaper, email me and we can come to an agreement.

I’ve been perusing through your Desktop Fridays… this one and the Auckland city are my favs.
