New Zealand Windows XP Bliss Desktop Background

Thanks to Jeroen Jordens in Oamaru for submitting this image - our own local version of the 'Bliss' desktop background that ships with Windows XP!
Jeroen, a Technical Engineer with Morcomm Systems (a Microsoft reseller) in Oamaru, says the
image was taken by an international tourist travelling around New Zealand. It was taken near Oamaru in the North Otago region of New Zealand and, although the tourist just had an interest in the beauty of the image, or perhaps the sheep, the Morcomm team recognised the close similarity to the Windows XP Bliss image.
The image has been sent to us here at Microsoft Auckland to share with other Microsoft customers.
