Curious to see what other members use as wallpaper on their screens. Is it your own image, or from some other source? Feel free to share yours here.

I change mine frequently:

From the Van Gogh exhibit 16:9 HD - looks best full screen on a HD monitor

I’m away from my computer, but it’s a scan of a watercolor painting—by an artist friend whom I haven’t seen in years—that used one of my photos as a reference.
 
Martin - I love Van Gogh but I'm not sure how I would feel about that exhibit. If it comes to Portland, I'll go see it. I've seen animated images showing that some of the "flow lines" that Vincent used are actually how the thermals would flow. Been to the VG Museum in Amsterdam 3x.

This is my current desktop screen. It's one of mine from a couple of years ago ay the Oregon coast.

Do post it later when you get the chance.

Nice shot.

I highly recommend the exhibit, and like yourself, I've seen his work displayed in Amsterdam.

Very nice. I never tire of Aurora's.

Sure. It reminds me, as I sit down to do some asinine anodyne task to move around computer-dollars so I don't starve, that all of man's hubristic creations can be rejected and destroyed. Brings a happy treat to my eye.
 
My wallpaper is set to change every hour and cycles through several hundred of my own photos. Most are straight photographs, but some have been highly processed like this colour abstract.

Lovely shot Tom, thanks for sharing!

I change mine regularly too but I keep coming back to this - it's just a holiday snap but from an area I am very fond of. This is the beach at Wustrow, on the Baltic coast of Germany a few miles east of the city of Rostock. Taken with my first DSLR, a Nikon D40.

"Approaching Storm", pastel, by Dana Cole.

I found the original email with this image from the artist, dating from 2007, and it turns out that it wasn't from one of my photos, but rather from a particular route that I suggested she travel on to get good scenery.
