I regret to say this but it's completely unuseable as a wallpaper. On
the other hand it's stunningly beautiful to just look at and enjoy.

Too bright, too distractive and too colourful. I work at night, I try
to concentrate and my work is graphics-related. When I show the
desktop (for one reason or another) it hits me in the face with
brightness. PhotoShop has been calibrated carefully so I don't touch
the monitor controls. The image is also very distracting and I'd spend
five minutes exploring it and finally forgetting what I was initially
going to do. Lastly, it's in a pretty tight spectral range and the eye
compensates for it after a while, so when I look away from it after
staring for some time, white looks bluish.
I usually use a black or dark gray background. If I use a picture,
it's a dark one with most colors present. But that's just me.
And you snipped the part of my post where I wrote how beautiful your
image was! :-/
