New Free Desktop Wallpapers

Photography

Jan 30

I’m happy to announce I’ve released a new set of free wallpapers you can use on your computer. Please go to my Free Desktop Wallpaper page to download any or all of them. You can see the new images below:

I love putting my images up on my computer as wallpapers as a way to always have them in view where I can study and enjoy them. I also like making them available so others can enjoy them as well.

These are some of my favorite images that I feel work nicely as wallpapers. They are sized at 2480×1440, with an aspect ratio of 16:9. Totally coincidentally, that size works perfectly on my Macintosh. There is a subtle watermark on these, because the reality of images online is they tend to wander widely and I’d rather not completely lose connection to them as they do, but if you happen to have a Macintosh and put the dock at the bottom of your screen, you’ll never see it. Almost as if I planned it that way. These images are a mix of bird and landscape images that I hope you will enjoy.
