Abstract Desktop Wallpaper (Adobe Photoshop).

Firstly we need to create a new file (File>New) of 1280x1024 px and 72 dpi. Using the Paint Bucket Tool (G) fill the new file with black color.


Select the main menu and the selection from here - Filter>Render>Lens Flare, setting the parameters demonstrated next


We need to get a kind of luminescence, shown below















Find the filters' gallery (Filter>Filter Gallery) choosing the chrome with the next shown parameters


Next select Filter>Distort>Wave and press the button demonstrated below


We'll get a kind of amphora shape, like the one from the next picture


Press then the combination of buttons Ctrl+U to insert the appropriate color

We'll get the next picture on this stage


Make a copy of the layer Ctrl+J and then provide the operation with the Wave filter, pressing Randomize button


Set the Blending mode-Screen for this layer


Make a copy of the new layer we've got, providing again the same operation. Finally we need to get about 4-5 copies


Using the Free Transform option, try to enlarge the new swirl, marking out all the layers


Create a new layer and fill it with black color. Select after that Filter>Render>Lens Flare and set the next demonstrated parameters


We need to get the next picture


Select again the Free Transform option to narrow a little the picture by its horizontal line. Place also the black layer as for the new result to be visible


Make a copy of this layer and turn it over the same way demonstrated below


Set the next Blending Mode-Lighten


The layers will be put together the same way you may see next picture


Make a copy of the last layer we've got and turn it around to get the star, demonstrated next image


Mark out all the layers composing the star and put them together into a single one (Ctrl+E). Set then the next demonstrated Blending Mode - Screen. Move off after that the black layer, placing the star on the central part of the picture






The wallpapers are finished!
