Where were the four landscape samples of Microsoft XP operating system taken?

You said four. I don't know all the people. However, I know where the default desktop is most famous.

This photo was taken in California, USA, and the green grass, white clouds and blue sky merged into a charming scene. When it comes to famous photos, most people may not think of the computer desktop background first. However, it is undeniable that the photos taken by O 'Lear near his hometown Napa Valley and finally used as the default desktop background of XP are definitely the most famous, with more than 65.438 billion visitors worldwide.

On the way to visit his girlfriend by car, Chuck O 'Lear was deeply attracted by the beautiful scenery of the rolling vineyards, so he stopped to take a photo as a souvenir. What the former National Geographic photographer didn't expect was that this photo became the default desktop background of XP operating system and the most viewed photo in the world.
