I have a wonderful desktop picture of the most gorgeous sunset, seen from the balcony of La Cisterna in San Gimignana. I still can't believe how beautiful it is. I change out depending on my mood.

My own photo of Lough Tey (Guiness Estate)in County Wicklow, Ireland. From the air the lake looks like a pint of Guiness!

I change my desktop background as often as every few days on all three of the computers I use on a daily basis. They all have my photos, and they all have a screen saver of hundreds of photos from my travels on 5 continents.
Let's see. Right now, the laptap has a lighthouse on Kauai. My PC at home has a lovely view overlooking Hanauma Bay (my BIL and wife are on Oahu right now and this helps me think about them and wish I was there...) and my PC at work has a beach photo from Aitutaki Cook Islands, South Pacific. Some day I hope be share my travel photos on the web. Enjoy your travels. |
I'm not a picture taker. I didn't have my own. With thanks to both djkbooks and Robespierre, who gave me recommendations... I have the most lovely street scene of Paris with the Eiffel tower rising behind with the bluest sky. Quick Paris fix. I'm going to change it often as well...

LuvMaine - I can't believe you have a pic of the Bridge of Flowers as your desktop! I live 20 minutes from there and it is very nice but I would never have thought of it as in the same league with all the European sites I love. Just goes to show you how we can ignore "gems" in our own backyard. I think I'll run over there this afternoon and take a photo of it. Thanks for reminding me that there are great places right near our own homes - helps to sustain us when we can't be traveling.

I've downloaded free wallpapers and screen savers from the internet.
At work I have wallpaper of a scene in Venice. At home, the wallpaper is a Monet "Waterlilies" and the screen saver is a series of 8-10 pictures of Venice that change in sequence. |
Sort of, it's my daughter @ the beach.
|
My current desktop is this shot from our recent stay in Capri:

Mine is a picture I took on one of our hikes in Chamonix one month ago.

I cannot possibly resist saying that mine is the view of Brissago and Pino on Lago Maggiore from my beloved Albergo Panorama in Gerra. Thanks for asking. I get a rush just thinking about it. J.

Hey, how'd you know that? Yes, mine is my friend's rooftop patio garden overlooking the lake and mountains in Vevey Switzerland from summertime a few years back. Took it myself with a disposable camera.
|
Certainly! I have Venice at home and work! Home is my DH's picture, work is a beatiful shot of St. Mark's SQ with nice lights after it had rained.
Sigh... 53 more days until Switzerland/Italy! |
Mais bien sur! Mine's the Cheese Guy who sells cabecous in the Le Bugue market.

Hi Isabel: the photo was taken by my husband in May, and the bridge was at its "height" with spring flowers and flowering trees. I had visited it before in the fall and wanted to see it in another season; it is truly a gorgeous shot.
|
My best friend’s daughter gave me a beanie baby several years ago to take on vacation with me and I take Cheeser on all my trips. My desktop is a picture of Cheeser in front of Big Ben. It makes me reminisce and laugh at the same time.

worldinabag,

I change my desk top pictures on my home and work computer all the time and 90 percent of them are travel pictures we took (the other ten percent of the time, they are of our cats).
Right now, my home computer has a picture I took in Cinque Terre, my wife's computer has a Yosemite picture, and my work computer is of The Hitching Post (the restaurant in Sideways). I guess I must be in the mood for wine (but no f+#@**# merlot). ((H)) |
Yes, always. It changes from time to time but it always a trip we have taken. At the present time it is the harbor in Monaco from our trip in May. It keeps me working at my desk and not going crazy!
|
Yes...I have been changing my desktop picture every few days just to "dream" about where we were this summer.
