      You can find 1280 x 1024, not just the 800 x 600

  • James

    Great photo’s but very low resolution… Next time try 1920×1080 to 2560×1600

  • fortworthpat

    I like no. 40 – Chicago Lights. The reason is it shows how large the area is and there are prophecies of a psunami from earthquake through Lake Michigan that will destroy 30 miles around the Lake. I believe it.

  • fortworthpat

    Sorry, it is not 30 but 300 miles around Chicago. It will make the Mississipp River 35 miles wide and divide the U.S.A into two parts. It is believed to be triggered by our insisting that Jerusalem be divided, God will divide us. When the houses were razed in Gaza that Pres. Bush was part of, houses were razed in New Orleans a week later..

    Love the photos, but one of the photos bothers me. The horse on his back seems to be in trouble. It looks like something yellow is tied around his front legs keeping him from moving. Hope i’m wrong. What do you think…

    Very, very nice images. I loved every single one of them.

  • Nermal

    viola, the horse is hobbled. That’s basically handcuffs to keep the horse from running away; pretty standard practice. I don’t think it’s preventing the horse from getting up.

    The caption seems to indicate this is a pretty normal state of affairs for the horse.

    Nice wallpapers, but really.. National Geographic is better on TV.
