What's your desktop wallpaper?

Having started the thread, I naturally changed mine. Once a week whether I need to or not!



It's UP 1995, the Chicago and North Western heritage locomotive run by Union Pacific. I lucked out and caught it at West Chicago. The signal tower in the background is an original CNW "E" unit, and is ancient.

This is my latest from last week's trip to San Antonio

That's fantastic! I "collect" old signs, and am always on the lookout for old signs like that, or old painted advertisements.

...I have been using this for a while, I took it looking up under the Stainless steel sculpture "Cloud Gate" in Chicago's Millennium Park.

I got this from a car club website in England. My car had this color combo when it was new in 1964....red, red, red, and red.

Great thread...

Here is my current work wallpaper:

I'm trying to make this my future weekend "office."
 
Here's the "home" wallpaper:

tiga2-I'll be seeing The Bean on Friday. Offers some really cool effects, don't it?

Steve-thanks. Classic and Sports Car has a small article on F. Gordon Crosby in the May issue, and that painting looked a lot like some of his work. It's fantastic.

Indeed, it's one of my favorite MG-related art pieces.

Took an interesting photo of the bean a couple months ago. I'll have to dig it up so I don't feel left out! :wink:
 
William, oh yea. To get something that large smooth in SS is fantastic.

This is another shot with my wife in front.
