Our computer backgrounds photographs first went public in 1996 as part of our internet marketing business. We found that people were using our high definition nature photos as web page backgrounds and desktop wallpaper. These photo galleries are just the tip of the iceberg; we have access to thousands more high quality photographs.
Usually, we ask that you give us credit for the photographs, especially if you can link to our free desktop wallpaper home page! You can further support our efforts to provide high resolution images for desktop wallpaper and computer backgrounds by subscribing to our feed and shopping while you're here.

A frosty tree line near Cooperstown, in upstate New York.A couple of cold nights, with a little dusting of snow, and that's about it for this mild winter. Hell, I only got to barbeque in 0 degrees once! Here are a few shots from this past winter, and that'll be it. Soon, the ramps will be out, the garden will get planted, and the photographs will have a lot more green in them!

Abstract photography by Robin SupakRobin has been taking abstract photographs for over a decade now, and has put together quite a collection. I've been remiss in adding some of her best work to her abstract photography gallery here at the photo blog, so here goes.
If you visit Robin's abstract photography gallery at the link above, you'll see that we've added some newer shots to that collection, including a few Christmas lights shots, and some winter road photographs, taken recently.
Robin's light source and motion technique works really well on the white background of upstate New York winter. A few of these shots look like they were taken on the great salt flats, complete with mirage effect.
All of these abstract photographs are available for use and remix through the creative commons license of this site. All we ask is for credit and a link back to here or to Supak.com. Robin's abstract pictures have been used as web site backgrounds, free desktop wallpaper, and as a starting point for various graphic arts and visual arts presentations.
I've used bits and pieces throughout our web sites, and client web sites, as part of the web design and graphic design process. They lend themselves well to the flows of certain web sites, and we encourage anyone to help themselves, giving us credit and a link for our trouble.
If you'd like extremely high resolution versions of these, or other pictures you've seen here or through Supak.com, please let us know and we'd be happy to work something out.

The Historic Village of Cherry Valley NYIt's cold out there, but the days have been getting just above freezing, which makes for some great icicles! The snow has been slowly piling up (amazing that DC has had more snow than we have this year) slowly, and this morning was particularly beautiful with the sun coming up over the historic village of Cherry Valley, NY, shown here from the hill north of town, looking south down the Cherry Valley Creek watershed.
We just posted some photographs from around Cherry Valley, including a couple of desktop wallpaper bird pictures and some pictures of icicles that are particularly impressive after a few days that got just above freezing.
We have two feet of snow coming this week, so we'll be out taking all kinds of great show pictures! The great thing about snow up here is that they deal with it very well. The plow guys get out immediately, and there are plenty of plows.
You really have to hand it to those guys. It's a tough job at odd hours, and when the plow breaks, I've seen them out there in the snow crawling under those big trucks to fix salty-snow covered parts... Not an enviable position, especially when it's butt ass cold out there.
;)
Female Cardinal on Our Back PorchI'll try to get a picture of one of the plows in action. It's really quite a site when they're cruising along sending up a huge spray of snow in their wake. I'll need the wide angle lens we just bought for that!
We also got a telephoto lens, which I've wanted for bird pictures for a long time now. Got this great shot of a female cardinal the other day, and maybe I'll get lucky and get a shot of the very shy pileated woodpecker one of these days.
Glad we got these new lenses right before the big snow. Should be fun. As long as the satellite internet connection holds out, we'll be uploading the pictures as we get them, so stay tuned.
