Can you guess the most looked at photo in the world?

The most looked at photo in the world is not the grainy Loch Ness Monster, the Afghan girl or even the first steps on the moon. 

Experts say it’s most likely Bliss – the default scene on Microsoft Windows XP released in 2001. As of 2006, there were over 400 million copies in use. It is estimated that more than one billion people around the world have viewed it, multiple times.

He slipped through a wire fence and took the shot.
