I noticed we hadn't had a "post your desktop" thread lately so I figured I would rectify that.

Since my desktop cycles through my wallpaper collection, I'm going to just continue to post whatever the hell is in my folder.

I'm playing Mass Effect 2 again. Different character, but the lovely Sara Shepard once again graces my desktop.

She knows what you're thinking. Did you see her eject 5 geth cooling clips, or 6? Well you gotta ask yourself.

Do ya feel lucky? Do you, punk?

Gusto, the only difference between that Shep and one of mine is I gave mine black lipstick. Stop almost copying me.

Hey guys, it's a time where I don't have anything better to do. That means I'm going to post more wallpapers.

That is a good one. I used it for a while on my netbook. Too bad you have to pay for the high res versions.

Nov 12, 2010#39

Allen, who is Quiet

Yeah, I hate that you have to pay for high res for it. I've been thinking of just making a vectored version of it in illustrator so I can get any resolution I want.

Here is a slightly higher resolution of a similar one

Wallpaper for this summer, of one of the SZS girls.

It becomes balanced once you add the ever-present IRC screen.

Just generic wallpaper here. Never see my desktop, so never saw a reason to bother.

I have made a rotation of about 30 of this guy's photos: http://stuckincustoms.smugmug.com/

For those of you with Google+, I highly recommend following him, his name is Trey Ratcliff and, well, the photos speak for themselves: https://plus.google.com/105237212888595777019/posts

Holy HDR, Batman. He actually uses it to pretty good effect, but man, I'm tired of seeing it.

Pluck out your eyes, then. They are HDR after all, and simply looking around the room gives the same effect...

Only if you're on acid

(The way HDR is generally abused, that is)

Jul 21, 2011#67

Very, very true. Too many aspiring photographers use HDR as a means to make their photos pop, rather than a means to bring up the detail in the shadows and highlights.

Apparently he was the first photographer to have an HDR photo in the Smithsonian, which is pretty cool. I only recently learned what HDR photography is, so while I've probably seen it, I haven't really 'realized' what I was looking at and don't feel overexposed to it. I really love his stuff. Picking out 30 favourites was fun, and it gives me a nice variety on my desktop.

Yeah, when I first learned about HDR I was all 'FUCK THIS IS AAAAWESOME!' After you've seen your hundredth glowing building, though, the magic tends to subside.
