Gold Hill, Shaftesbury, Dorset
Flickr can be a great source of images for pretty desktop backgrounds and stunning photography. I recently got a Mac at work and today took some time to find a pretty desktop wallpaper to help motivate me while I work.
Everyone who knows me, knows that I love Dorset, England. Specifically Shaftesbury, Dorset. It’s my one dream place that if I could be anywhere right now, that would be it. It’s a perfect picturesque English Village surrounded by dramatic countryside and filled with lush history.
I’m planning a trip there in March and to motivate me to work hard at work to make it happen, I wanted to find a good high resolution picture on Flickr to function as my work desktop wallpaper.
While doing so, I stumbled upon some fantastic photography that I wanted to share with everyone.
The first is the photography of Marilyn Jane. She apparently live in Dorset and has taken many fantastic pictures of the beautiful countryside. She also has a personal website and a blog. Good stuff.
After I browsed MarilynJane’s Profile, I discovered a Flickr Group of Dorset Photographers. There are tons and tons of pictures of Dorset taken by many talented photographer. Check out the Dorset Photographer Group! You won’t be disappointed.
