I became an "Apple"... (meaning my boyfriend bought me an IMac for Valentines Day)...

So.. I finally got tired of looking at that default purple spacey desktop picture and decided to change it up and add something new. After fussing with it for a few minutes and not quite figuring out how to get my own pictures loaded to where I want them to be to do what I want them to do.. I decided that it's late and i'll just use one of the default pictures in the MACs folders. So I started perusing through them .. and what to my wandering eyes did appear??

A picture called "Winter Sunrise" that is an absolutely stunning black and white of Whitney and her beautiful surrounding peaks, shot from (to my nearest guess) just south of Lone Pine.... (I could be wrong about that though)

That's just a veiled hint that the next OS will be "Mountain Lion"

Upon a little further research I'm feeling slightly chagrined at not having recognized it as an Ansel Adams print entitled "Winter Sunrise, Sierra Nevada, from Lone Pine, California, 1944"
