Introduction :
Hi, I am John Macken and I took almost all the photos on this
website. Photos by others are credited. I really
do attempt to make every photo on this website vivid and
breathtaking. Only about 1 in 20 of my photos meet my
standards to be displayed here. Below are brief
descriptions of the categories of desktop wallpaper pictures.
Tropical
Islands : The South Pacific islands of Tahiti, Bora Bora, Rangiroa, etc.
are a real tropical paradise. The blue lagoons and tropical
beaches of French Polynesia make great desktop wallpaper
pictures. The islands of French Polynesia also are a
wonderful vacation destination. Write to me if you want
my advice on the best way to see these islands.
Water
Lilies : Flowers are nature's celebration of life and water lilies are
the most vigorous expression of this celebration. Any
one water lily flower lasts only 4 days, but the plants grow
so rapidly that they can bloom continuously for 5 months a
year. I have 2 ponds and grew almost all of the water
lilies in these photos.
Roses : Roses
are the world's most popular flower. The rose pictures
on this website will brighten any computer desktop. Also, try
e-mailing a red rose picture to someone.
Brilliant Flowers : Here is a burst of color from dahlias, daisies and daffodils
to orchids, poppies and pansies
Landscape #1 : These are landscape scenes from temperate and cold climates.
These include Alaskan rain forests, fishing villages and
glaciers. New Zealand provides dramatic scenes of
mountains, valleys and fjords. There are also icebergs from
Antarctica and the rugged coast of northern California.
Landscape #2 :
These are scenes from warm and hot climates. These
include, tropical pictures, tropical sunsets and desert sand
dunes. There are also pictures of African savannahs
taken by my wife, Enid Macken.
Foliage : Green
is beautiful. This wallpaper category shows inviting
paths through rain forests, jungles and palm trees. Also
the category attempts to capture the beauty of foliage.
Animals : This category contains animal pictures of
African lions, elephants,
and giraffes in their native habitat. Bird
pictures include a bald eagle, wild turkeys and sand hill
cranes. Closer to home, there are pictures of dragonflies and frogs that live in my pond.
