Visit http://ldopa.net/2005/12/16/find-the-hidden-nature-photos-on-your-mac/
Scroll down until you find the link "Find Nature Patterns" - it'll run a script in Mac OS X, and the pictures pop up in a folder.
They are really nice pictures.....lol
EDIT: sorry about that, it starts with an l, not an I. Woopsie...

Safari can’t open the page “http://idopa.net/2005/12/15/find-the-hidden-nature-photos-on-your-mac/” because it can’t find the server “idopa.net”.

Here, I copied and pasted it for you:
Run this script to find some gorgeous nature photos that are stashed away on your Mac’s hard drive:
Find Nature Patterns (requires Mac OS X 10.4 or higher)
…part of the little-known “Nature Patterns” screen saver that silently snuck in to your hard drive via Mac OS X 10.4, they’re stunningly beautiful, high resolution JPEGs; and any or all of them would work really nicely as weblog header graphics, background elements, or just additional desktop backgrounds. Pretty!

Thanks! If other readers are having a problem running the AppleScript link, as I did, they could alternatively, select “Go To Folder…” from the Finder’s “Go” menu, or, while in the Finder, press Shift-Command-G and enter: /System/Library/Screen Savers/Nature Patterns.slideSaver/Contents/Resources
Then copy the now visible Nature .jpeg files

Thanks for posting that DotX3. I see, it's Ldopa.net (as in the medicine L-dopa) not Idopa.net.

I don't see what's so exciting, it's just the pictures from the Nature screen saver.

More websites should be named after anti-Parkinsonian medication. :D
Nice find. :)

Yeah thats true but you can never have enough backgrounds:D . I did this for the Beach screensaver's pictures a while ago, but sadly they are only 1024x768. I didn't think to look at the nature ones, but at least they are some nice pictures with higher quality and at 2560x1600, it's just too bad the beach ones aren't of the same quality because I think they are way nicer than the nature ones. The Forest screensaver jpgs are small ones too. :(

Talk about anticlimax. :(

Those would be rather natural, too.
I'm not sure why people consider these photographs hidden. If that's the case, there are many, many hidden items within Mac OS X.

Jeez.. someone wrote a fancy script for opening the folder "/System/Library/Screen Savers/Nature Patterns.slideSaver/Contents/Resources/"...
URL: :D
file:///System/Library/Screen%20Savers/Nature%20Patterns.slideSaver/Contents/Resources/

Following Deep Thurrott is a bad idea, in any case. He's quite a mercenary.
