This image started as a close-up digital photo of a live Common Garter Snake (Thamnophis sirtalis). After some manipulation, I managed to get a portion of the image to tile on the screen and give the impression of a snake skin. If you are interested in using it as wallpaper, follow the directions below the photographs. Keep in mind, that if your are already using a screen saver from the Internet, unless you save that file, it will be  replaced by this new wallpaper.
