I've got a nice program called winwall which changes my wallpaper every 30
minutes... so I decided I needed a huge number of pretty abstracts for my
desktop.
The source for these is in p.b.s-f, the frame number is used as a random
seed, generating a theoretically infinite number of different images. I've
picked some of my favourites to show here.

Said to myself "simple, yet elegant". That first one really draws my
attention, but I like each of these for the way they seem to defy gravity
and adhere to the ground plane at the same time.

And that's what I call a 'good desktop wallpaper' :) simple, almost
without background - yet attractive :)
btw: nice finishes!

And a few more select ones that have rendered since my original post (pov's

These ones really show off the photons.

I'm reminded of innumerable scifi paperback covers from the Sixties,
though the orbs in those were usually ovoid (long axis vertical).
