Roses for Wallpapers

Poppy flowers

I love poppy flowers. In Italy, you can see them growing along the railway tracks. Near our home in Bologna, there are some uncultivated fields that are full of wild grass and the red poppy flowers in late April and early May.

Have you read Amitav Ghosh's "Sea of Poppies"? In that book he talks of white ocean of poppies. However, all the poppies that I can see around in Bologna have red coloured flowers with small rounded black seeds. Perhaps the white poppy flowers of Amitav Ghosh's book, that are used for making opium are different from these red poppy flowers?

People

Here are some images of people and daily lives, that will make for great wallpapers.

Colourful Partot Parade of Bologna

Bologna (Italy) has an annual summer appointment - the Partot parade. In the local Bologna dialect, "Par tot" means "per tutti" (for all). University students including many international students, prepare their dances and dresses for weeks and the wonderful colours of Partot parade make for beautiful wallpapers.

Nature

Soothing greenery, landscapes, gardens are great for wall papers.

Monkeys

Among all the animals, I think that monkeys are most capable for stimulating warm cuddly feelings, especially baby monkeys. If you do not believe try taking a look at these wallpapers of Bonnet Maqaque monkeys with long tails and bonnets of hairs on the head, from India.

Sun temple of Konark (Orissa India)

Sun temple of Konark, a UNESCO world heritage site, is among the most beautiful places in India. Close to the sea, the temple is also known for the erotic statues. However in these wallpapers, I have avoided the erotic statues.

Gods and religions

If you are a religious or a spiritual person, perhaps you would like to check these wallpapers dealing with different religions and gods?

Yellow flowers

I love yellow. It makes me feel positive and happy. I like yellow t-shirts, yellow flowers, websites based on yellow. If you want your wallpaper to make you feel nice and positive, try one of these yellow flower wallpapers. Actually some of them are more orange than yellow but that is besides the point, isn't it?

White flowers

White flowers remind me of marriages and snow. They are also calming and soothing. Some of the flowers below are more yellowish or pinkish than white but that makes them even more beautiful.

Red flowers

Red colour is full of energy, good for waking you up if you have problems getting started in the morning. On the other hand, if you are the kind who gets agitated quickly, probably red colour should be avoided. Any how, take a look and check how beautiful these flowers are, in different shades of red, salmon red, etc.

Pink flowers

Do you like to think pink? I think that pink is for persons who like their own individuality and refuse to bow down to conventions. Pink can be luxurious and satiny, perhaps not the best colours for your workplace unless of course you work with some luxury brands or holiday spa like place. Take a look.

Blue and purple flowers

Blue and purple are royal colours. Blue also reminds me of moon light. Some of these wallpapers have beautiful colours.

Dances from India

These wallpapers are from Bharatnatyam and kathak dances of India. The dancers are Praveen Kumar and the troupe of Birju Maharaj. The blurred images of the dancers against the dark background makes for wonderful wallpapers.
