I have another suggestion for your ears today. An album I recently found that has been available for a while now it seems. I have been a fan of this musician for a long time without even realizing it. Mick Turner is a guitarist that has worked with all sorts of various big names in the indie music world. Most directly and obviously is his involvement with the group The Dirty Three.

At any rate, I will skip the history as its already been written a million other places more accurately and with a more professional gloss than what I can manage anyhow. This is a beautiful album full of slow, calm, rambling guitar along with the occasional other instrumentation. Almost ambient in the end but in a smooth, relaxing sort of a way. A great album for times when your mind needs a break which mine often seems to need so I love coming across such albums as this.

So take a moment and listen on iTunes or Amazon or wherever you prefer… surely your mind could use such a calm moment as well..

Through the Flowers

Another day, another set of desktops for everyone. The images here were shot while I was in Munich and they are so similar I just figured I should release them in a pack together to make it simple and this way you get them all at once and can choose by trying. My trip was a great one and I have other photos I would like to share here soon and I’m coming up with a good way of doing that. But for now enjoy these and I will check back soon. Im feeling a music post coming..

Please use these only for your desktop wallpaper and nothing more. No commercial use is allowed! Thanks and enjoy! Download the pack by clicking the link HERE.

Purple

I am alive and well in Germany this week and finally have an internet connection so I thought I would post a desktop for everyone. Contradicting the cold rainy weather I have been in all week I chose a simple image of a purple flower surrounded by white ones. Not to much to report outside of doing well and enjoying my time in Munich, still 4 days left so im going to get to living them.

To download the desktop simply click the image below or maybe right click the image and download the attached file. Legal info is in the zip file but pretty much I just ask that you dont use the image for any commercial use and otherwise, enjoy!

This was a popular one when I posted it up on flickr so I decided to make it the next post in my series of photos taken here in this spot. Only a couple more of these sorts of shots left I think. I will try and get some more nature shots in sometime for those of you who like those.

Sorry about the big preview image, its the best way I could come up with to show a little piece of each desktop without posting 8 images, click the image to download the set of 8 desktops. Remember, these are not for commercial use! Feel free to use them as your desktop wallpaper and send your friends a link to the site but please ask before using them for anything else, thanks and enjoy!

Support the artwork you admire! Also, it is greatly appreciated if you do NOT link directly to the zip files. This is more or less the same as re-posting them as it circumvents the tiny bit of support I ask of you which is to simply link back to the original post for others to enjoy the site.

It’s not fair to artists if you do not credit their work and link back to the original content creator. It is theft plain and simple and blogs that attempt to somehow be mysterious by not giving credit to the creators are simply hurting the artistic community as a whole. If you love it so much then please, support it! The artistic comunity on the Internet is based on trust. Without trust then what do we have? are you going to be one of the responsible users out there or will you be among the bottom feeders, stealing content and passing it off as your own to make a quick buck in ad sales. Use your best judgement and we will get along just fine.

Thank you for your understanding and support!
