WALLPAPERS

Just a hobby and to decorate my own desktop, I often make wallpapers in Photoshop. Below are the wallpapers, credit is given where it is due. Wallpapers are in order from newest to oldest, oldest being at the bottom of the list. Dotted line border IS NOT part of wallpaper.

Oh, by the way, the scene in the background is Florence, Italy
