Some time ago, I read David Siegel’s call for the Karmic backgrounds contest. I am not the kind of good photographer guy (still learning!), but my mother is (at least I think so!!). Check it out: http://www.flickr.com/photos/abcnogueira/

Since she knows about the whole Open Source thing, and uses Ubuntu since 2006, I told her about this contest. She start sending her photos right away! She was excited to help the Ubuntu Project with what she can, and have her photos used all over the world!

Last week, she was VERY HAPPY to to have 5  photos selected to the Ubuntu Artwork Karmic Release Shortlist! Now let’s cheer to have at least one of them included on Karmic release!

That’s something I could never picture: my mother contributing to our beloved community! Way to go, Mom!
