As a little bonus for my friends and followers every month I provide a free image for use as your desktop background wallpaper on your computer, mobile phone, or tablet. Each beautiful photo is a picture that I have created and it always includes a calendar overlay for the month. I know that I’m always looking for a calendar and having one on my desktop or phone wallpaper is very convenient!

This months calendar image comes from a recent drive out onto the prairies to the east of Calgary to photograph the sunrise and to search for birds, animals, and scenic landscapes. We’ve had some pretty incredible storms this summer and I’m always on the lookout to incorporate the resulting clouds into my fine art photography. Fortunately I found exactly what I was looking for and was able to make some images that I’m really happy with. This hayfield is just south and east of Calgary (near Indus, Alberta) and the huge storm clouds in the background had already passed by to the south of Calgary. I’m glad it missed the city but equally happy to have seen it!

To install the image as your desktop background, simply click on the link below that corresponds to the file resolution you would like to use. When the larger image appears in your browser window right-click on the picture and select “Set as Desktop Background…”.

For some browsers (Google Chrome for sure) you may have to choose “Save As…” to copy the image to your desktop first. You can then right-click on the file on your desktop and choose “Set as Desktop Background…”.
