    MardiGras-c500Happy February!

    As promised, here’s the free February wallpaper for download by clicking HERE (1024 x 768; 371 KB)* or HERE (1280 x 1024; 628 KB)*.

    This time I was inspired by Mardi Gras (the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras, obviously); Fasching/Fastnacht (which I learnt about in German class) and the Rio Carnaval (because I had photos of costumes beside my bed when I was a child).

    I first went to Mardi Gras (Sydney version), when I was about 13, with Mum and Dad. Ages ago. At that stage I didn’t realise there were other, more religious, versions of Mardi Gras.

    Whatever, this image is still February for me. Note the milk crate. Shame fluoro pens are so hard to scan.

    *The wallpaper is for you to use on your computer desktop; I’m keeping all other rights/copyrights.
