As creatives, we spend a huge amount of time indoors parked in front of our computers. Now you can bring the outdoors inside with surreal, nature-inspired wallpapers from Desktopography.

Since 2005, the site has featured a new image collection each year and the 2008 collection sports some real beauties. Downloads are free and available in a range of sizes.

If you’re a seasoned Photoshop jockey, you can join the fun by submitting your own design to be considered for next year’s collection. Visit www.desk08.customize.org for more info.
