50 Remarkable Nature Wallpapers
When it comes to beauty nothing can beat the beauty of nature. Although we, designers, can derive inspiration from almost everything, nature often manages to provide us with beautiful eye-catching perspectives we would never have explored otherwise. We have collected hundreds of wallpapers already (see links below). In this post we would like to focus on wallpapers which emphasize the variety and beauty of nature.
This post showcases 50 remarkable nature desktop wallpapers. This post covers various themes and subjects; we have included both photographic and artistic (photo-manipulated) wallpapers. Hopefully, everybody will find something from himself / herself.

July 11th, 2008 9:04 amI always wonder why everything has to be so high contrast !
There are a few exceptions but geez we will soon need sunglasses to look at pictures !

July 11th, 2008 5:07 pmperfect time for my wallpaper change :-)
Tom
July 12th, 2008 1:26 amMost of the wallpapers are incredibly beautiful, altough I think – as others mentioned here – that the contrast of the pictures in the last years immensively increases, what makes natural pictures a bit unnatural. This is of course also a product of the possibilities of digital environments and it’s usage. It is definitely different to analogue photography.
However, this is a great list to choose one or more of my future wallpapers :)

July 13th, 2008 12:17 amThough I usually love SM articles, I must admit that this review is quite deceiving. Being a environmental person, I have collected hundreds of nature wallpapers and the one presented here are mostly boring and/or common (all but both beautiful bird pic: the jay and the hummingbird).
What about the National Geographic archive of pictures offered as wallpapers? These are some of the most stunning nature photographs you can get!

July 14th, 2008 12:32 amYeh some absolutely amazin pics there. I particularly like the sun through the woods. It seems a lot of them look like they’re done with HDR which is getting pretty overused at the mo but does look really cool.
