November Desktops

Would that be Birmingham?

Nope, further down and to the right - and you'll get your feet wet if your walking!

 

[CHAOS STEP]

Sorry, not a screen dump, but here is my current desktop image.

Either that, or one from here.

Bonus 100 MR posts* if you can work out what this is a picture of (or, more precisely, if you can explain the "beaded" pattern of the streams). Lifted it from Wikipedia.

* OK, obviously I can't do that and nor do I know the right people to arrange it...

its actually fairly simple with the right f-stop and exposure, you can open the shutter on a camera to allow any light that travels around or infront of the camera lens to cause line streaks, so apparently they used some kind of flashing light to create the beads....and the reason that you don't see the person is that it only captures things of bright lights or things that are not moving ....that would be my knowledgeable guess....but otherwise lemme say..thats flippin sweet!

Sweet wallpaper. Did you render that or get it from a monthly rendering contest? (not as odd as it sounds, I've seen those, I swear!)

You're on the right lines! So yes it is bright lights with a long exposure. But why do they "bead"? The answer is...


AC current at 50 or 60 Hz means that incandescent light bulbs flicker in phase with the changing voltage. Look up "alternating current" in Wikipedia.

So basically someone shot incandescent bulbs which happen to flicker based on alternating current....and then moved the camera to create the tails?

Here is just one of my desktops for November.

I love the Fireball pic!!!

I usually don't have hot-girl desktops, but this one was too good to pass up, for a few days at least:

Elisha Cuthbert! You can never go wrong with her! Amazingly hot!
