google now day mountains

If you’re like me and you really enjoy the clean art style of the Google Now background images you see popping up, you’ve probably wondered where you can get some of that stuff as a wallpaper. Well, the sly sleuths of Reddit have tracked down the man responsible for helping create those backgrounds, and the wallpapers are sitting on his Flickr account for all the world to sink their teeth into.

For now, there are two night scenes up — beach and forest — and two day scenes — mountains and plains — for you to grab. Unfortunately it doesn’t look like any of the city-specific skyline backgrounds are up on his Flickr, but we’d obviously be jumping for a few of those cool ones, as well. Check the wallpapers out above and below, and be sure to check out the rest of the brilliant work on Brent Couchman’s Flickr account if you enjoy his work on these Google Now masterpieces.

The "Google Phone" sounded too awesome to pass up, so I bought a G1. The rest is history. And yes, I know my name isn't Wilson.

  1. Just noticing it changes throughout the day

    1. Haha, yea. It also changes to the skyline of whatever city you’re in if it’s a fairly popular/big city.

      1. I will have to check that out since I live in Detroit, gotta love the little things.

      2. I’m guessing you have to have gps or some location services on for that to happen, right?

      3. nice, which one do we have to use (will the ones on this page work?) for this effect?

    2. So if I save any of these wallpapers it’ll change automatically?

      1. that would be awesome but no..

      2. There are some apps that can do that. But on my phone I can set my album as my background and select the folder and it will just slideshow through the photos. Not exactly changing throughout the day, but yea.

  2. How do you download them?

    1. Right-click on the image -> save as

    2. Assuming you’re on your phone, just do a Google image search. Thats been the easiest way for me. Long click on the image you want and save it. Or download the GoogleNowWallpaper hd app from the play store.

  3. I knew I’d seen the iOS7 color scheme somewhere.

  4. for more of this artist’s work visit his Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/brentcouchman/

  5. I thought the first one was South Park.

  6. Cool find, mate.

  7. Hmmm no news today

  8. These are great, been looking for some nice minimal wallpapers to swap back n forth through.

  9. Not sure where the city wallpapers are located now, but I have definitely seen a package with all of the Google Now wallpapers before. I’m sure a Google search could uncover those again.
