Favorite Desktop Wallpapers

What are your favorite desktop wallpapers?

Here are a few of mine

Do a google image search for 914 917 and you'll find a few versions that you may need to crop or resize.


This is from National Geographic available here


There are several cool volcano photos, easy to find with a google image search.






Search google for ferrari 166 barchetta, there are huge versions of this available.


One of my favorites, an actual photo of the majority of the constellation Orion. It's actually many, many, many photos taken over the course of months that have been combined into one photo. The guy that took it has a website with many, many more astro-photography photos, many that have been selected as Astro-Photo of the Day
Deep Sky Colors - Astrophotography by Rogelio Bernal Andreo (this particular one is under "nebula")


Nebuta parade float, primarily from Aomori, Japan. Do a google image search for Nebuta and you'll find lots.


I had a bunch more including more Porsche content that I had used over the years, but a HD crash a year ago means that I lost most of them.

Oh, and almost forgot, great free wallpaper app that will help you get the most out of multiple monitors in Windows 7 (not just wallpaper stuff, but other dual monitor tricks too)

Some good stuff. I went to the Rauh-Welt thread and grabbed a couple of pics.

Mine's pretty simple, but reminds me of how much fun it is to be a dad.
