    Very awesome, the Palouse is incredible, can't believe I hadn't heard of it before.
    • Fun fact (You probably found this while researching Bliss but many others might not know): Even in the years when the Bliss wallpaper was taken, it didn't look like it does in the wallpaper, but was always a Vineyard with the stakes and grapevines. But a couple years before the picture was taken, there was some bug infestation that made them tear out all the vines and stakes, leaving just the hills (and were later put back again, as we see today). The photographer also happened to drive through the area after a rainstorm which left everything particularly green. So the photo itself would only have been possible for handful of total days over those limited years (where it was a clear sunny day after a rainstorm). The perfect time to be taken for XP.
    We're also lucky that the photographer had the right kind of camera and film, a medium format camera shooting Fuji Velvia, known for having rally saturated colors. He credits much of the success of the photo to the type of film and the larger format (much bigger and higher 'resolution' than normal 35mm). He was also obviously really skilled, having been a photographer for National Geographic.
    So basically the scene of Bliss was really only something that could have been happened upon by chance, and wasn't some well known photography spot. We're very lucky that the Photographer, Charles, had been particularly watchful that day.

    Although I did not grow up with Bliss, I did grow up with the iconography of green hills & blue skies(Frutiger). I can't find other landscapes that match its awe, and that's because Bliss is saturated more. That is a unique aspect of this image, making it 10x easier to remember its beauty.
