I’m not sure exactly what it is, but good ones make for great wallpapers. Maybe it’s the depth of perspective that my mind subconsciously squeezes irony from… irony derived from the fact that this deep horizon-scape is displayed in a flat finite rectangular box that’s usually 17, 19, or 21 inches diagonal. It’s the little things, I guess. I’m at work or cramped in a room inside and the wallpaper is my statement of defiance to the confines of my surroundings. Long live laptops.

Here are two gorgeous horizons. The one on the left is Tide by Inga Nielsen. The one on the right is Relative Calm from Moodflow.com.

The one on the right is Alien Paradise by Inga Nielsen.

As a side point, I get all sorts of emails about various parts of my site, including the wallpapers. Lately even more so… and my site traffic has been ramping up, along with unique visitors and bandwidth utilized. Funny, though, that while overall activity increases in every category, comments tend to trend the opposite. And the opposite seems true, too. Is this like the voltage-current curves in electrical power engineering? Should I create a polar plot of my blog’s power factor as voltage and current lead (or lag) one another? (if I just lost you you are the better for it…) :-) As always, if you enjoyed the wallpapers you found here please visit the creator’s website and pay homage. ;-)
