Baby it’s cold outside – and now inside too as I’ve set an artic cool winter scene as my desktop background on Ubuntu.
Below is a seasonable selection of HD winter wallpapers suited for use on desktop PCs and laptops and tablets and Chromebooks and phones and… You get the idea.
All of these ice-cool wallpapers were sourced from unsplash.com. Unsplash is a great place to find high quality, royalty free photography you can use in projects and apps and websites and… As desktop wallpaper.
As the images embedded below are compressed .jpegs you should CLICK the link underneath each to download a high-quality version from Unsplash (be sure to browse other images uploaded by the same artist).
To set an image as your wallpaper in Ubuntu: right-click on an image file in the file manager and choose “set as desktop background”.
Winter Wallpaper Collection
A quick glance at any of the images below should be enough to send a frosty chill rushing out to nip at the tips of your ears — which, incidentally, was the exact selection criteria I used to find them!
Now, I have tried to curate a varied set of images. Some stick to the steely tones expected of winter scenes, others showcase a richer colour palette. Winter is a beautiful season, and it comes in more than just one shade.
