For wallpaper I feel it’s less a question of composition than of an image which is restful, bringing, for example, a memory of a pleasant Spring day. These luxuriant rhododendrons fit the bill for me.

Ian, this is indeed elegant and restful. The mix of gentle colors is wonderful. The drama of the flower centers on the right add a fine change-of-pace. If this were my desktop, I’m not sure I’d get any work done.
Lovely soft image Ian. The soft pink and flowing composition, along with the hint of rain drops totally make a wonderful “memory of a pleasant Spring day.” Thanks for sharing it with us.
This is definitely a beautiful, feel good, spirit lifting image, Ian! Great choice for wallpaper! The small version is very pretty but the large version definitely has the most impact when it comes to creating a pleasant mood.
