March 2015 Calendar Desktop Wallpaper – Lake Michigan Lightning

I am not a storm chaser. I do not collect scientific data and I am not an adrenaline junky. If a storm chases me, however, I grab my camera!

This particular shot was taken from Pere Marquette Beach in Muskegon on Lake Michigan. There is something a little extra special with this shot. During the 30 second duration of an open shutter on the camera, two separate lightning strikes occurred. It sort of beckons to an era of photographing with film, when I would intentionally fire a shot twice without advancing the film. Serendipity with this one!

February 2015 Calendar Desktop Wallpaper – Mackinac Bridge

If you like this view of the Mackinac Bridge, then I highly recommend taking advantage of it; which requires a stay at the Riviera Motel in Mackinaw City. It’s not exactly the Palmer House in Chicago, but then again, the Palmer House does not have this view!

Yes! This means the Desktop Wallpaper Calendars have OFFICIALLY returned to Picture Michigan! There is a small change from last month. Instead of 1080-sized images, the images are 1280×720 px. When setting the background, experiment a little. Maybe center will work better than stretch for ya. And you can save it in your mobile device and use it as wallpaper there too.

 

Desktop Wallpaper Calendar

Since the earliest days of the Picture Michigan website, desktop wallpaper has been a popular fixture, except for the past couple years.

So let’s try it again. Only Calendars. Only one size, to fit screens that are 16:9 ratio. If you have an old “square” monitor, well, it just won’t be the same if you try to use it.

Because of the number of operating systems and browsers and phones and tablets, there is really no way I can offer support. The resolution of the wallpaper is 1920×1080. Right click on or touch & hold on the image and there should be something like “set as wallpaper or background or save as etc…” Depending on your choices, you may have to stretch or center.
