I actually named it Bucolic as a nod to Windows XP! The original name of the Bliss wallpaper was "Bucolic Green Hills" before Microsoft bought it from the photographer.

The film isn't quite that old but the camera is actually from 1981 lol
I picked up photography back in May which just started by getting an old point and shoot digicam to take convincing liminal space photos, then I got another..... then another.... then some film old cameras, a cheap DSLR a set of lens, etc. Etc. It's become a full on addiction at this point lol

Huh, that's odd but I think I may know where the discrepancy is coming from. When Charles originally took the photo in the '96 he licensed it out under the stockphoto company Westlight. Westlight was purchased by another photo company that was owned by Microsoft, Corbis in 1998. Technically Microsoft could have just licensed the photo as they now owned the company that owned the licensing, but chose to fully buy the rights directly from Charles so they could have unlimited use for it with all the branding for xp outside of just the default wallpaper.
