Two New Desktop Images – 1920×1200

Hey folks – here are two new desktop images made from photos taken in downtown Portland, Oregon. The images are 1920×1200 and will scale down nicely for most widescreen monitors. Enjoy!

Round Edges on Images. Not a Magnolia.

I took a few photos this last weekend. I figured I’d run them through roundpic.com to see how they look with rounded edges.

Here’s one sample – it’s a Kousa Dogwood.

Square Edges:

Rounded Edges:

The rounded edges are pretty cool. It gives a different feel and adds more character. Check out roundpic.com to test out your own image. The only downside I noticed with using roundpic.com is that it can strip Adobe color profiles from images causing colors to be slightly different. Check the two images above and you’ll see the correct color profile in the squared version (if your browser recognizes color profiles; Safari does), and stripped color profile in the rounded version. Oh well. Maybe 2.0 will solve this little side-effect.

Dandelion Desktop Image

I took this photo at the top of a high-elevation vineyard using my Rebel XTi and a Canon 100mm macro lens.

Download and enjoy. The full-sized image is 1920×1200 and will easily scale down to 1680×1050.
