October 2009 Wallpaper
September 29th, 2009Here’s the October wallpapers in both 2560×1600 and 1280×853, shot in the Nubra Valley, India, not far from the Pakistan border this September. I shot it using a Singh-Ray Blue-Gold Polarizer, a 3-stop ND grad, and three camels, during the Lumen Dei Tour in Ladakh. ![]()

Lovely!!
nice – camels AND an awesome sunset
Great,I love it!
Awesome, love it. Thank you so very much
That’s an amzing shot! Thanks for sharing it!
I checked at B&H; they don’t sell camels.
love!!!
love this!
LOVE what the filters add to the image. It feels like the falloff is a little much in the upper left corner, which makes for a bit of a distraction. If the vignette is something you applied in post, I’d be very interested to see what it looks like with about 50% less.
Still, great image!
Thanks, David. This is my favorite wallpaper, …so far.
LOL @ Jeff Chapman! Are you sure? Did you check the McNally aisle?
@ Chris. They have helicopters, elephants and film noir sets in the B&H McNally wing, but, unfortunately, no camels. Yet!
Love the monthly wallpaper (as always) … but I do have one request for the future … would it be possible to include the location on the image (maybe under the website/copyright or next to the calendar)?
How do I get the 1280 x 853 version? I only find tiny (linked from the image at the top of the post) or huge (the link in the post).
