Img22 (Windows Vista)

img22 is a wallpaper included in Windows Vista. It was taken by Microsoft employee Steve Fu in 2003. It depicts a part of the Enchantment Lakes Basin in Cascade Range, Washington, USA at dawn.

History
Due to a reservation cancellation, Fu was allowed to access the park, where he took the photo in an unknown month of 2003 at 5am. He used a Nikon D100, with an 18-35 millimeter lens. Three years on in January 2006, he submitted the photo to Microsoft while they were picking Vista's RTM wallpapers. They paid him $1000, although he was not bothered by how much money he got paid and even claimed he would have done it for free. He also stated that the photo would be "immortal for the next decade".

There is also an alternate shot of img22, which shows more of the rocks and trees on the left. It was most likely taken from his website, which is no longer online and the Internet Archive has been unable to archive the image files there.
