Subsequently, one may also ask, is the Windows XP background real?
Bliss is the default computer wallpaper of Microsoft's Windows XP operating system. It is a virtually unedited photograph of a green hill and blue sky with clouds in the Los Carneros American Viticultural Area of California's Wine Country. Charles O'Rear took the photo in 1996 and Microsoft bought the rights in 2000.
Similarly, how much did Microsoft pay for bliss? “Bliss” by Charles O'Rear. Microsoft then selected O'Rear's photo out of thousands of images in their stock library to illustrate the philosophy of Windows XP, and the company paid O'Rear an undisclosed sum that's known to be over $100,000.
Herein, who took the Windows XP background?
But apparently it's real! And to commemorate the end of support for Windows XP, Microsoft made a video about the photographer who took the iconic picture. Chuck O'Rear got the image in southern Sonoma County, north of San Francisco. * He took it on a Mamiya RZ67 camera with color Fuji Film and a tripod.
