What's picture are you using as your computer wallpaper right now?

This picture is my current wallpaper. It’s my niece and nephew, during her “It’s my baby!” stage, which is actually still going on over a year later (although it’s been slightly adjusted to “It’s my brother!” and allows Mommy and Daddy some claim to the baby as well).

Droooool

I use webshots for my wallpaper at work (no formal complaints from IT just yet). It lets my backgroud change every 15 minutes. Most of my choosen wallpapers are of tropical islands, beaches, or diving scenes (all places I would rather be that at work). It also lets you use your own photos for wallpaper, so I have a few pictures from my saltwater aquarium tossed into the mix…

A photograph of the San Francisco skyline. It’s a double-exposure (correct terminology?) so that the sky looks like dusk, but the lights from the buildings are as bright as they’d be when it’s dark.

This picture of my pigs the day that we got them. They are considerably bigger now and much less cute.

On my work computer I am using a picture of the CLS63 AMG.

On my home computer, I have a picture of my family.

On my laptop, I am using the standard windows provided screen.

A rice paddy similar to this one.

this “double” exposure

My wallpaper on my work computer is a picture of the plant, desk and cubical wall behind it, lined up so that when you look at the screen it’s like looking through a window.

Meet Ms. Subways.

Whee, posting’s working.

My desktop image is a portrait of the Egyptian goddess Hathor that I commissioned from the very strange artist Ursula Vernon (of metalandmagic.com). (Her response to the commission was “Cow heads! Woo!” which should give some sense of her normal levels of peculiarity.)

I’m currently displaying this photo of taro fields in Kaua’i. It reminds me of our vacation there a couple of years ago and how much I love a tropical, simmering, jungly landscape. One of these days I’d like to go to Bali, as Tony Bourdain’s show about that country shows heartrendingly beautiful tropics.

A photo of Mt. McKinley I took this summer.

At work: a shot of Stonehenge

At home: a freeze-frame of a water droplet landing in a puddle

Something similar to ** silenus** only mine is a drop of milk and the crown formed as it hits

Same here – my desktop is a photo of the wall behind my monitor.

At home I have this picture, that I took a few weeks ago on one monitor and this picture, since removed from the site, on the other. At work, I just set this as my wallpaper.
