No match
I know this won't appeal to the masses - it's not your typical wallpaper. But someone did comment in one of my previous submissions that I should also take photos of 'less pretty' things. How about some ugly railway tracks?

I really like to view of the railroad tracks without the train. It's such a beautiful shot. Looks like it was done in the early morning. I am huge fan of your work.

This is a great shot! One of my [other] favorite wallpapers is a portion of an old door on a street in Corfino, Italy. Images like these create thought and nourish the creative process. You are great at what you do. Thanks.

Hi Chris, This is just a wonderful photograph. Thank you for sharing it. It is a combination of a number of things for me and I am just mesmerized by it. First of all, slate with a strong bluish tint is my all time favorite color. Second, because I am a professional engineer I keep on focusing on the details. The exposed granite (bedrock) looks like it was leveled by fire and water, hence the potholes. The corrosion spots on the rails are quite unique because they have a yellow perimeter. It seems as if a corrosive lichen or bacteria is eating the steel. The weathered wooden ties are superb. There is also a bit of cast concrete below the tracks but I am not sure why. There are also some cast concrete shapes to the right which may be never installed concrete ties. Thank you again for sharing this with us. I have it as wallpaper on three of my computers, each at 1920 x 1200.

I loved this wallpaper. I'm using Ubuntu with Docky theme of Gnome-do. It is shiny, sits right between the rusted tracks on the bottom, giving a beautiful effect. Thanks. :)
