This is the post your current wallpaper to your journal meme. There's some folderol about not switching wallpapers before posting. This just makes me wonder what embarrassing wallpapers you people might have and what you do when you carry your laptops into coffeeshops.
Also in the folderol: a demand for five sentences on why one uses said wallpaper.
I like this wallpaper because it's pretty, and amazing, and I took it myself so I'm proud of it. That was one of those fifty-in-one (seriously, I think I took about three hundred and fifty pictures taken that morning to get seven really worthwhile photos -- I love digital) shots where everything goes together, almost. Plus, I like the way the depth of field reduces all the leaves in the background to really abstract shapes. It's also (in different dimensions) the wallpaper on my cellphone. It's a shame I never actually look at my wallpaper, and I've left so many icons and HP-installed Vista craplets on top of it.
Anyway, my other computer has XP's Follow picture with the crappy Photoshop mixing of Caribbean and Indo-Pacific fish. (I take that back! Looking at it I can't tell if the followers are juvenile blue tangs -- Caribbean but maybe circumtropical -- or a yellow tang native to the Pacific I don't know. But anyway, not a scene from nature!) And the dimensions are wrong for the netbook screen too! I use that because I'm lazy.
