As my previous wallpaper... Beautiful Manarola. Luckily I've been back, only this time it was not sunny. Still, amazing. Hope you like it.

Note: I left horizon like that on purpose. Lately I'm tired of straight horizon lines.

The bridge/viaduct in the picture is the Millau Viaduct in the south of France. It is the current record holder for tallest bridge by structural height (343 meters/1125 feet). When you look at the cars you get a feeling of how big this viaduct actually is. I shot this picture on the way back home from vacation. Had to make a massive detour to see it, but was totally worth it. The picture was shot on the 6th of March, 2011. As you can tell from the picture, it was a very hazy day, but with some Adobe Lightroom 4 magic it became much better.

These water droplets were left behind on a car after a light summer shower... it's almost as if they're levitating in the air. If you look closely, you can see the view out of the garage window!

...verso il lago fusaro (Bacoli -NA).

Walking near the big lake of Etosha National Park in Namibia is this male Kudu. With a dramatic sky in the background, I thought it would be a nice descape (desktop-escape). Now don't you go register this name online! Enjoy.

This image has been taken on top of the Rigi mountain near Lucerne, Switzerland. It was -20°C (-4°F) plus strong winds that made it feel like -100°C. Of course I thought that my leather gloves would suffice which turned out to be wrong...

Hey Guys, This is one of the coolest looking buildings in Manhattan. I really like the Art Deco style that it was built in. Hope you like it! :-) Danny
