I really think that the bottom isn't a Blue Beatyfull Subject, but THE Right "Blue Beatyfull Subject".
This time we have to work with a difficult name to face, we can ignore it, but I really don't think this will be the right way.
But maybe this time we can use a photo, it would be something different, changing - mixing is always good ;)
Just a question, I comes back from Holiday just a few days ago... what about all the purposes for F10? With "cambridge" what we will do?

The air balloons in one of the earlier releases were very nice.

Very nice :D
I'm sure this will spark a major discussion on whether photography,
realism, or abstract art is better for the Fedora wallpapers. I,
personally, am for abstract art, namely because I think Linux is more
abstract than other operating systems. (Not that it makes it bad or
anything) ;)
I wouldn't be against photography or realism as wallpaper, though. I
just have a strong preference for abstract stuff.
