I believe, there should be more focus on Default Apple wallpapers. Hear me out.
Firstly.. Leopard and Snow Leopard OS's- those had some nice new wallpapers, for that time.
Look, not everyone loved them, but they were at least fresh.
But now.. half the desktop wallpapers are from 2-4 years ago, and most of them not updated for Retina which is majority of Apples current computer range..

Now, Apple is a company who prides themselves on aesthetic appeal and quality of hardware (especially of late - monitor specifications). This is the big selling point, the screens.
How can they not have high resolution, optimised wallpapers in 2016 to show that hardware off?
Sure, they have one or two high resolution wallpapers of Yosemite.. but a quick google search will bring up amateur photos of Yosemite, at same angles, which are clearer and look much more appealing than the Apple ones.
I mean, get some DSLR's out into the wild, take some creative photos, touch them up. The Default wallpapers take up 95% of the monitor real estate in stores.. get some incredible photos out there!! Show off those screens!
I know what some of you might say, well... once home, download your own wallpapers.
Yes, I can. But thats completely beside the point.
People love Apple wallpapers, for a lot of consumers the default wallpaper is all they will ever have on their desktop, because they enjoy having the default, the full Apple experience.
There is power users out there who only use the default wallpapers, just check the Picture Gallery desktop threads, its not only for the stores.
Apple has the resources and money to pay a professional photographer for a month every year, not a problem.
This is an easy, cost effective way, to bring about a fresher look, and optimise the look of their hyped up new retina screens.
Doesn't it make sense for them to focus more on this??
Interested to hear what people think
