[Closed] What's your current desktop background?

Mine is the little valley hidden behind the Burn O'Vat in Aberdeenshire:

Mine is from a Bikepacking trip around The Gower back in the summer when the sun still shone.

I have a daily changing wallpaper. Mostly pics I've dl'ed from the Yeti site, some great photos on there

You :DW:

Dutty Houns... 😂

Mines a family shot out in Pila.
Been using it from the start of lock down. Keeps me focused on when we eventually can go back

I don't change mine very often! This was from May!...

Just out the back of my house, early morning, pre-work ride earlier in the year...

Mine is the little valley hidden behind the Burn O’Vat in Aberdeenshire:

There's some nice wee crags in there for a bit of rock climbing, I spent a great day there a couple of years ago. Really must get try and get back down again.

Some crap my work forces me to have. Think it's supposed to be motivational....

Points for anyone that can tell me the location

Same as @thols2

Pretty sure I had mine first though.

It's not Monk's road, Charlesworth is it...?

1998?

Dammit, I changed from carbon just after the millenium

You're right

it's not

Right county though, but a reasonable distance from there

This one from STW:

On work laptop. Only see it for a few seconds before 20 windows get opened up over the top of it over the course of a day then a few seconds as it shuts down on a night. Keeps it vauguely generic incase I end up screen sharing durng a Teams call. Can't be bothered explaining a personal background after someone glimpses it for a moment.

Photo I took in Oct. Redcliffe bridge, Bristol.

Corporate backdrop on screen one, picture of my old dog Ted on screen 2. Helps me differentiate between work stuff and personal stuff.

The joys of being rear gunner. You get to take shots like this. From an epic summer Monday Night Pub Ride on Pendle Hill a few years back

I've got a Porsche 917 on one screen and an Audi S1 Quattro on the other. I also dont change them often and its been like that for some time.

My laptop desktop has a rear quarter view of a Porsche 928 GTS.

I've got a load of pics that mostly I've taken rotating but my 2 current favourites are on I took of the good lady and on of me at this years Ard Rock.

Works machine is a boring corporate one, but the swan above is on one of my devices and the rock tower below is on the other - both my own pictures

Usually some scenic photo of my own.

Currently this one.

Same as @thols2 and @Haze but mines in widescreen:

Very dull company logo, due to the zealots in IT!😡

This however, is my phone wallpaper. In case you don’t know it is the last known image of HMS Hood, taken as she steams into battle at full pelt against the Bismarck. Not long after she’d gone to the bottom taking all but 3 of her crew with her…

Inspired by @gingerflash I've bought some colour to my desktop, taken just a couple of days before Mallorca went into lockdown...

[img] [/img]

Windows is set to show me new ones every day or so and I've been training it to show me outdoor/landscape stuff. It's been stuck on something which I didn't bother to check but think was Dawn wall. It just changed to lady bower and the 'plug hole' (bell mouth slipway)

I've got the Bing Wallpaper app, so a new one every day. Today it's a rhino with some birds sitting on it. Not one of the best.

Whatever Biĺl Gates thinks i should be looking at...

Sort of a Soylent Green approach (some younger folks may have to google that)

Like the black ones above but mine's level 11 black

In case you don’t know it is the last known image of HMS Hood

I think this is probably a later one...

And this definitely is.

The cover of Smell the Glove?

None more black

I’m assuming we’ve all done the thing to our colleagues where you get on their Mac, take a screenshot of the desktop then hide all their desktop folders and set the screenshot as their desktop.

Much hilarity to be had as they try to click on folders and files that won’t open.

Reminder of our October trip to Zermatt on my retro Marin.

Anything thats funny.

Picture I took on a night ride earlier in the year.

@Johnners - OK I’ll bite 😀

The top photo is Bismarck firing. I’m not even sure it’s firing at Hood. Most captions have that photo as firing at Prince of Wales. The second photo is usually described as the smoke from Hood after it has exploded, so it’s already below the water at that point…. I suppose you could say strictly that IS the last photo. There have also been quite a few pictures taken of the wreck site too (not a lot left intact), so I’m saying my photo is the last one before it was destroyed!!

Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada.

@timbog160 - just teasing! Tbh I'm pretty unsure about the first pic, it's not the best of shots and I'm not expert enough to identify what it is though the BBC site it's from suggests Bismarck.
Whatever, your phone wallpaper is by far the nicest shot of the rather lovely Hood.
