F1 fans should go here and sign-up for the FREE archives section:

This man is one of the best motorsports photogs ever and has decades of experience. His site is not exclusive to F1; you'll find pics from sprts car racing and automotive stills, also. I'd post an example, but only small images can be linked off the website - they simply don't do justice to the man's talent.
As a background, just WOW!
I alternate between those two.

I registered on there, and I agree he's got some amazing pictures, but I can't figure out how to get them wallpaper-sized. Any help?

Click on the chosen photo and go to "full-size" mode. Right click on the photo and select "Set as Background".
Right now I'm using an overhead shot of John Watson in a Brabham-Alfa Romeo from Monaco in 1977.
There are SO many other choices!

A sunset. Taken last year over a small airport just 2 blocks from my house.

Incredible shot!
You missed a great opportunity to put some dents in the top of the nearest vehicle - even if it was yours.

I could have climbed on my already dented van's roof for the pic, but frankly, I always felt the fence added a certain contrast that added to the image. Kind of an artistic Trapped/freedom - Sunset/awakening - Atomic mushroom/ intrinsic beauty - Mother Nature /manmade thing. It's hard to explain in words, as hard as I try.
I thought the image did it OK, though. You should see my line of POW camp postage stamps.
