Windows 10: Issue with Lock screen wallpaper

So when I have to change the lock screen photo I go to the directory of the photo open it and set it as lock screen but recently I discovered the one photo I am trying to set as lock screen is set there. if I go through Windows Settings>Personalization>Lock Screen, it shows the photo I want to see but when I lock my computer there is a different photo as wallpaper. This is my current setting but I don't see the photo shown in the settings. I get the 2nd picture attached, as my wallpaper.
