I like to have my own pictures as wallpaper on my computer, but getting a good picture that is bright, colorful and interesting but with the right color tone and composition so that my program icons are clearly visible and legible is a challenge. Of the pictures I've used for wallpaper, I have discovered that blue works very well. These pictures as well as the one below of the St. Louis Arch are great as wallpaper.
About noon we were driving from our cabin in Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island of Hawaii to the north coast. It would have been shorter to go through Hilo, but we wanted to drive along the Kona coast which meant taking the very indirect route along highway 11 to the far southwest end of the island. The extra hour and a half was well worth the drive as we saw parts of Hawaii culture we would have missed otherwise. Just south of the town of Punaluu we pulled over and I took several quick snaps. I was pleasantly surprised how good they turned out. If you look closely at the first photo you can see several cows in the pasture. I was amazed at how many ranches there are on the Big Island.
