Show us Your Cool Wallpapers

I am a fan of displaying my cell phone (iPhone 13) pictures on my desktop, but I also like to have cool wallpaper images sometimes.  It's one thing to have a nice landscape on my 32" 4K LG display, but you can find beautiful artwork now and then.  In any case, I usually change my wallpaper on my main computer every few days.  Here is my current image and I'm interested in what others are displaying for their wallpapers.  Are you using a Theme setting, one that cycles through a set of images, instead?  Where do you get the best wallpaper images?  I found some good ones here.

I can't remember where I found this wallpaper, but I like it.I can't remember where I found this wallpaper, but I like it.

This is interesting too.  European Space Agency's Euclid space telescope could help us understand how they've shaped the cosmos. After a successful launch, the ESA has released the first color images from Euclid, and they're truly stupendous.

Beautiful space shot.Beautiful space shot.

Hey there!

 

I love the idea of using cool wallpapers on a desktop, especially on a 32" 4K display — it must look amazing! I totally agree with you, a nice landscape or artwork can really elevate the workspace. I usually switch things up every few days too, depending on my mood.

I’m not using a theme setting myself, but I think that’s a great idea for constant variety! As for where to find wallpapers, I tend to go to sites like Unsplash or Pexels for high-quality, free images. They have a lot of stunning landscapes, cityscapes, and abstract art that fit perfectly on a big screen.

How about you? Any specific sources you prefer for finding those awesome wallpapers?

I sometimes make my own, like this one from watching the recent SpaceX failed launch of Starship #8.

 

Things were going fine here, but four of six Raptor engines shut down prematurely and it soon tumbled and broke up.Things were going fine here, but four of six Raptor engines shut down prematurely and it soon tumbled and broke up.
