Wonderful photos in this thread. I loved Bruges, went there on SWMBO's works Christmas party one year.

Mine is a standard Windows 8 desktop - only because Dunnottar Castle is just 6 miles from where I live.

Thanks for pointing out this feature of Windows 8 because for the time being I have the initial wall paper - the one with the drops on a grey silver background.
