Hôm ấy đi ngắm cánh đồng hoa vàng thử, bổng dưng phát hiện luôn khu y như Windows XP Bliss - Đồi cỏ xanh dùng làm hình nền Windows XP hồi xưa ấy :D
www.newegg.com/insider/history-microsoft-xps-bliss-backgr...
The History Behind Microsoft XP’s “Bliss” Background
The man who took the picture was Charles O’Rear, a former National Geographic photographer from Napa Valley. He never had any intention to take the photograph, but pulled out his trusty Mamiya RZ67 when he noticed the perfect colors on his way to visit his girlfriend one Friday afternoon. To this day, he claims the photograph was not altered in any way.
“My God, the grass was perfect!”
— Charles O’Rear on when he saw the landscape for the first time.
After taking the photo, O’Rear sold it to Corbis — a digital imaging licensing company privately owned by Bill Gates. When it came time for XP developers to pick a stock image for their wallpaper, they settled on Bliss. They liked the image so much that they chose to buy the rights instead of licensing it.
Nobody knows the exact amount that O’Rear was paid for the picture, but it was too expensive for UPS or FedEx to ship the negative from Napa Valley to Microsoft’s headquarters in Washington. Instead, Microsoft bought O’Rear a plane ticket so he could hand-deliver the picture that would soon become one of the most recognized images of the computer age.
