March Wallpaper: Give Peace a Shot with IGVP!
This month’s wallpaper is courtesy of the International Guild of Visual Peacemakers. I am a member of several guilds and organizations, but there is none that I feel more proud to be a part of than the IGVP. Not only because I share membership with noted photographers like Ami Vitale, David duChemin, Gavin Gough and [...]
February Wallpaper
So my gift to you is not one but two complete sets of wallpaper for most any size screen as well as for your iPhone or iPod Touch.
January’s Wallpaper
You know what they say, “Better late than never.” I am trying to get caught up on my posting and will probably jet caught up just in time to leave for Iraq on the 25th. Here is January’s Wallpaper for 2010. This is the way I took it. I did not add any effects or [...]
December's Wallpaper
I don’t have any current snowy images that I can use to make the December Wallpaper for you. No icicles hanging from the eaves or people huddled around a fire. Sorry, I live in the tropics. So, I decided to at least give you a high key desktop image. This is an image of a [...]
November Wallpaper
I know I’ve been quiet for the past few weeks. I’m not sure why the creative writing juices are not flowing, as a result it’s been a rather dry time. As I wrote yesterday, Gavin Gough flew in for a quick visit. While here we both confessed we are slackers and slapped each others hands [...]
September’s Wallpaper
Septembers wallpaper is yours for the download. I hope you enjoy it. I shot both of these while in Chiange Mai Thailand this last month. I am being extra generous to you this month as a way to celebrate my new 13″ MacBook Pro and my Apple Cinema Display. So, one wallpaper for each monitor. [...]
August 09 Wallpaper
Wow what a CRAZY week. My 17″ MacBook pro is on it’s last few days, literally. I tried to order a new 13″ but nobody in all of Malaysia has one. So I had to put an order in and hope my current MacBook holds up. It has been crashing every 10 minutes, no kidding. [...]
July's Wallpaper
I was walking in the mountains while in Kashmir and was delighted to see the wild flowers everywhere. Even though I am not a flower photographer I could not resist shooting these wild daisies. They make a nice soft desktop image for July. Simply click the image above and view it larger. For Windows user [...]
May Wallpaper
Here is May’s wallpaper. Something a little different. I took this shoot while on this last trip to Kashmir. It is a raptor, a bird of prey called a Black Kite. They are all over the skies in Kashmir. I shot it with my ever-trusty 85mm 1.2. Now, I am not, as you can plainly [...]
March 2009 Wallpaper
Here is the wallpaper for March. I took this way back in 2004. It was a frosty, foggy winter’s morning and I was out driving around Dal Lake, Srinagar, Kashmir looking for things to photograph. I drove by this old dunga (a small Kashmiri canoe) and saw this.
Yes, this images has had some tweaking done [...]
January Wallpaper
Better late than never, I always say. Maybe becasue I am often late. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this image. I shot it early one morning during a trekking trip in the Indian Himalaya, at a small lake names Vishansar. I had gotten up early with my wife and daughter to go trout fishing [...]
December's Wallpaper
For December I though we needed a wallpaper with snow. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find snow 5º north of the equator? So, I hope this image shot last September during the Lumen Dei workshop in Ladakh will do. It is on the road to the Kardung La. We were [...]
November Wallpaper
Here is your November wallpaper. These are “mani stones” found all over Ladakh, India. This wallpaper is a bit more tricky to download. You will have to right click it in Windows and ctl (control) click it on a Mac to open it in a new window. Then just do your thing to make it [...]
August Wallpaper
I am gone for a week to Bali, Indonesia. Trying to to drum up some business and network with some folks. Till then, keep spreading the word around about the Penang Lightroom 2 PhotoWalk. At last count we had 22 28 participants. Sign up soon, we can only take 50, space is limited.
In honor of [...]
Wallpaper for July.
Well, I had high hopes at getting you a wallpaper from Penang for your desktop. But I have been way too busy setting up home, … a better way of putting it, trying to find a home. Today I met with a friend here in the city, he let me use his scooter for the [...]
June's Wallpaper and 80 Thanks
Yesterday was great! I had a wonderful surprise party for my 50th birthday. How my wife pulled it off is beyond me. She and two good friends of ours, Julie Mahler and Patty Lynn Weber all got together and schemed. Somehow they managed to get around 80 of my friends to show up at Schoepf’s [...]
May's Wallpaper – Lumen Dei
Here is May’s wallpaper. It is a little different. A bit of a plug for Lumen Dei. Which, by the way, starts in 136 days. (note: We still have two* one space open.) This image is of men waiting for a meal in a welfare line. I love the intense look that the man in [...]
April Wallpaper
(Silly me, I forgot to give you the location of this shot. This is taken on the edge of Dal lake in Srinagar, Kashmir. Right in front of my favorite coffee shot “The Ice Fern” see the map below.)
View Larger MapI know, I know you are amazed! Not at the image, but that it is [...]
March Wallpaper Image
Here is March’s wallpaper. This image was shot on the road to Padang, Sumatra. Not sure the type of flower but, the background is a traditional Sumatran house. These buildings have a very colorfully carved exteriors. Please feel free to download it and hope you enjoy it.
February Wallpaper & Geotagging Photos
Hazratbal Shrine, Srinagar, Kashmir, India

January 2008 Wallpaper
I returned from the Philippines and Thailand Saturday night late. It is 5:30 am on Monday morning and I have been up two hours. This is a typical post trip schedule. Many of you who travel know what I mean.
Click the image above then drag it to your desktop to download.
I have been very lax [...]
I shoot for mostly NGOs and nonprofits. I photograph images of the unknown, the forgotten and the helpless. These are often the stories that most people overlook.
