June Desktop Images

Every month I change my desktop image to a photograph I've recently taken and I thought it would be fun to share these images in my blog so that you can download them for your desktop as well! Every month I'll try to post a new image that is suitable for displaying at desktop size and resolution. Did anyone else notice that I didn't post one for May?! Why didn't anyone tell me?! In any case, click on an image to download a copy for your desktop.



This area of Bergen, Norway is known as the Bryggen, which is where boats and fishermen come in to shop and sell their catch of the day. When you see postcards or art of Bergen, very often you'll find an image of the Bryggen because many of these "stick houses" are over a hundred years old, and built in classic Norwegian fashion.



I usually like my desktop images to have some clean areas so that icons can easily be seen - but I love this image for the novelty of looking in the store window every day and discovering something new in this Bergen Antique Shop. I think it's quite fascinating to see what people treasure enough to hold on to and to pass on to others.

When am I going to give away a gift from Norway?! Right now. ;-) Since most of my time was spent in Bergen, the gifts are specifically from Bergen and will be equally appealing to a man or woman, maybe even a dog! To enter this contest, you will need to EMAIL ME a picture of your feet wearing your favorite shoes. I want this to be a self-taken pic of YOUR feet inside YOUR favorite shoes! Please make the image no larger than 600 pixels on any given side. Smaller is OK if you're just using something like a camera phone. I will choose the winner based on creativity - so let your imagination soar!! Why shoes you ask?? Because I found LOTS of beautiful shoes in Norway, yet never found a single shoemaker who sold my size. So, let me see your favorite shoes! The winner will be chosen on Thursday, June 14th, 2007! Game on!!
