August 2013 Desktop Calendar

Two weeks ago I was in New Orleans for the Botany 2013 meeting, this past week I took some vacation time to do some hiking in New Hampshire, and this upcoming week I am off to a Plant Development meeting in Vermont. It has been a whirl-wind time reconnecting with colleagues, friends, and family. Apologies that the August desktop calendar is a little late. Hopefully you have been enjoying the summer weather and calendars have been far from your mind.

The image below shows some Sphagnum mosses with capsules. I took it on our hike up Mount Monadnock in New Hampshire. It was a good hike and really great to see so much lush summer vegetation!

1 - Single click on the image to open it up in a new window. (If you use the image directly from the blog post you will lose a lot of resolution.)

2 - Right-click (or ctrl-click) on the image, and chose the option that says, "Set as Desktop Background" or "Use as Desktop Picture". The wording may vary.

3 - If the image does not fit your desktop neatly, you may have to adjust the image (Mac: System Preferences - Desktop and Screen Saver - Desktop; Windows: Control Panel - Display - Desktop) and choose "Fill screen" as the display mode of your background image.
