The ocean wallpaper is a photo manipulation. The artist, whose user name is htmlxcoder, took a number of pictures and combined them in such a way that they blend into one cohesive image.

The top of the image consists of a night sky view, complete with a large moon and tons of stars. As your eyes move downward, the sky changes to look more like a sun setting through clouds, with its diffuse light gently shining through. This could seem out of place, however, the way it was done, the sun through clouds section blends wonderfully into the night sky above. The overall affect of this is somewhat haunting but also quite lovely.

Eventually the horizon meets the ocean, and you can see a silhouette of a large building on a hill in the corner of the image. This building adds a nice bit of detail to the image–it’s far off enough in the distance (therefore small enough) not to be too distracting, and it adds a bit of intrigue as well. When you look at the picture, you see the ocean leading toward the building, which can make the viewer feel as though he/she wants to enter the picture to go find the building. The detail of a small wave breaking along the shore of the hill is a nice touch.

As the eye moves down into the foreground, it finds a rocky shore with breaking waves. The breaking waves add a nice bit of movement to the picture, and the rocks and sticks along the shoreline give the beach a beautifully creepy uninhabited look. The right corner of the image is quite dark and the scenery vague, while the left corner is much lighter, revealing the rocky path leading towards the distant building. This type of lighting does not quite make sense when the image is taken as a whole, but the difference in lighting does create a more interesting visual.

Overall, this wallpaper creates a sense of solitude, maybe even a vague sense of creepiness, and the building in the background adds a sense of longing and adventure. As ocean wallpapers go, it’s definitely darker and eerier than most, but it’s also quite interesting and evocative.
