This months background wallpaper image comes from the prairies to the East of Calgary.

I love roaming the prairies and although I’ve been too busy to get out for this kind of personal photography very often lately, I recently managed to make a trip out to enjoy the sunset. It’s really amazing how lush and green the countryside is this summer. In a normal year it would be brown as far as the eye can see. Not so this year. We’ve had so much rain in the Calgary area that the land is green from horizon to horizon. It’s really amazing to see. As a result the crops in the fields appear to be vibrant and healthy. I stopped at the edge of a wheat field to catch the last rays of the sun as they lit up a grain bin, but very quickly got distracted by the grain itself. I’m no farmer but I believe that these are stalks of wheat…

New for this month is a mobile version of the wallpaper! This version is sized perfectly for the iPad, but it can also be used for other mobile devices including all Android phones. Please let me know if there are any other formats or sizes you would like to see.
