Hello Folks,
Newbie here, learning via w3schools.com. I think I'm missing something basic, but I can't figure it out.I'm using w3schools to create a hero image (via https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_css_hero_image), but when I upload that code to my host, and then using different screen resolutions, the image is distorted. Viewing it on 1024x600, I see the hero image of the guy holding a camera, but if I view it on a much higher resolution, the image is "zoomed in" to the top left area of the picture.
Here's the code, any help would be most appreciated:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

body, html {
