Who created the default Ubuntu wallpaper? I mean the wallpaper displayed at this link. It is beautiful and I am curious: was it Mark Shuttleworth himself?

I think it's a worf of the Canonical Design Team Blog.

Update: Now that i've read a little, i believe Canonical held some sort of contest where users could contribute with artwork, Wallpaper competition i believe, and maybe some user won and got his wallpaper published.
