Apple’s next major update to its OS X platform is set to launch for late September this year. Termed “Snow Leopard”, Mac OSX 10.6 will feature several new features and updates and will particularly go head-to-head with Microsoft’s next operating system, Windows 7.

We’ve already featured a bunch of stunning Windows 7 wallpapers, both official and community made. Now here’s Apple turn. Our friend Mayur has got his hands on a download of official Mac OS X wallpapers. And here is your turn to grab the beauties.

The wallpapers are high resolution, 2560×1600 and feature “stunning scenery, beautiful beasts and groovy graffiti” as Mayur notes. The excellent photography and design portrayed in the wallpapers are also a delight to the eyes. So whether you use Windows or OS X (or linux), these wallpapers are a sure shot to go, to add to your collection. Download links after the break:
