So look here. I downloaded the regional wallpapers. Put them on the desktop slide show and wife starts asking me where is that one from? So I had to put the region name on all of them using an editor. But thats not good enogh. She want to know"what is that". I googled Brazil but nothing looked like it. Someone got a clue? Looks like a bunch of mud baths to me. lm

Alrighty then, I was wondering where all these grandkids were coming from. So here is the next one. I must admit I have not seen this before either. What is that man made or is that some of nature's own strange works. Who knows this one?

Pretty sure it's natural, little tip for you if you right click on the picture and go to details you will see the title information tells you what and where it is.

That one is Basalt Columns of Giant's Causeway at Sunset, County Antrim, Northern Ireland.

Yes Anthony she is happy now:D She can read the added text and I can find the name of the landscape pic so all bases covered for awhile but you know how that goes. She do have a beautiful smile.

I had to go all the way back to the original downloaded file to find the detials that GRiM clued me into. They were missing on the files that I had IrfanViewed with text.
