I love freebies, especially useful ones. As such we offer a monthly series of freebies that are hopefully useful and inspire. These are a series of wallpapers for the laptop, phone and desktop. This is the story behind this months wallpaper. October 2012 Wallpaper The other day I was driving along the road leading to Greenhaugh in Northumberland National Park. As this is not a road I often drive along I was on the look out for anything worth snapping. This old gate caught my eye. There is almost more string holding it together than anything else. The state of the field that it was meant to be an entrance to was not much better than the gate. We thought it would make a good wallpaper this month. October 2012 Wallpaper - without calendar We are offering two versions of this - one with a months calendar on it and one without, in varying different sizes. More details can be found on the fullersfolio freebie page and we hope you like them.

White Cliffs of Dover A few weeks ago we were fortunate enough to be walking along the top of the White Cliffs of Dover in the sunshine Speed Boat going by The air was clear and bright and we were able to watch the boats going by as can be seen here. We were walking from Dover along the National Trust path to the South Foreland Light House Having enjoyed looking round there we walked back on a slightly different route. September Wallpaper The wheat was a fantastic golden colour having ripened in the sun. It waved in the wind. We thought it would make a good September wallpaper reminding us of what we have been missing with all the recent rain. September Wallpaper with Calendar We are offering two versions of this - one with a months calendar on it and one without, in varying different sizes. More details can be found on the fullersfolio freebie page and we hope you like them. Sun and shade Recently we were walking in Galloway, on one of the few days when it has not been raining, and the sky cleared up and the sun came out. It seemed so very bright, maybe because we have not been used to the sunshine due to all the rain and grey skies, or maybe due to the extensive tree cover over our path. This meant that initially we could not make out what was beyond the table. It seemed to be forming a junction between the dark and the light. Our eyes just like the camera having problems coping with the contrast, as you can see in the image Rigg Bay in the sunshine As we got nearer the beautiful sandy bay was revealed, glistening in the sunshine. This enabled us to sit at the table, take in the view and enjoy the rays, as the table was at the junction between the shade and the sun. (The fact that the people on the beach were wearing thick warm clothes does really say it all for mid July, when the image was taken). August 2012 Free Wallpapers Sitting in the sun enjoying the view really cheered us and we thought that this would make a good image as our August wallpaper at fullersfolio. We are offering two versions of this - one with a months calendar on it and one without, in varying different sizes.

Kintra Farm Isle of Islay For our first free set of wallpapers we thought it would be good to have an image that reminds us of this summer, even if it is currently grey and bucketing with rain out side, and not like summer at all. We were fortunate enough to be staying on a converted barn at Kintra Farm on the Isle of Isaly recently, which covered the period of the Jubilee bank holiday celebrations. The farm where we were staying is visible at the top of the image. Islay Beach from Kintra Farm On the Monday the weather was fantastic and we had been for a long and enjoyable walk along the beach – miles and miles of sand, sea and very few people. The evening remained fine and the sky lit up with the most fantastic sunset. We were half watching the sunset and half watching the Jubilee concert on TV when a massive ball of fire erupted on top of the hill across the bay. Islay Jubilee Beacon The people lighting the beacon must have added large amounts of fire lighter as the flames initially must have been 10-20 metres high. Even though it was a good few miles away I managed to get several good shots of it, using the 500mm telephoto lens. Islay sunset with beacon on left The beacon continued to burn for some time, but the flames were no real competition for natures show, that just covered the whole horizon The beacon can be seen on the left hand side of the picture, with the smoke going up into the sky. July 2012 wallpaper Out of the selection of pictures we had taken of the beacon and the sunset, we have chose this as the final one for the wallpaper. We are offering two versions of this - one with a months calendar on it and one without, in varying different sizes.
