Yes, mr daves spring 2024 publicly free including any SF folks herein, HD display sized laptop Personal Computer Wallpaper offering. Was just captured Thursday mid morning on May 2 at my San Jose Municipal Rose Garden. a6700 Focus Bracket blend of 30 shots, Sigma 56mm F8.0. Focus Stack processed with Zerene Stacker then Photoshop CS6.
Carefully positioned the shaded green bud at mid frame left to silhouette against the yellow petal. Quite love the mix of colors of this bloom of a rose cultivar named Rainbow Sorbet against nicely clear for our coastal region, blue sky. Finding blooms in an outdoor garden one might position up against blue sky is limited due to adjacent elements like tall trees in several background directions. So one will often see him skooching down low with head in order to look diagonally upward while sizing up camera lens directions.
Waited some for a breeze null that seemed to grow less certain. But I was patient enough to at 9:15am PDT received one good breeze null before packing gear up for my drive home.
The Laptop PC wallpaper standard size is 1920 by 1080 pixels, a ratio 16:9 W:H that is more panoramic than 3:2 W:H ratio standard camera sensor (3:2 = 15:10) So I had to crop some of both the top and bottom of the original post processed image. Was then downsized to this 1920 by 1080 pixel offering.
At frame lower right, the top edge of the leaf appears mushy that I've purposely left soft for the sake of a modest indication of manipulation versus the reasonably straight photo renditions I am known for and prefer in other's work. So yeah some Photoshop Cloning Tool blue sky areas over out of focus flowers for the sake of its wallpaper graphic purpose.
