Installing packages from Rawhide on F9 is a bad idea (in particular when you post about it to a blog which inexperienced users will read). It can in quite some cases drag in a lot of packages from Rawhide due to the network of dependencies (in both directions). Why didn’t you use the F9 build from kde-redhat unstable?

I couldn’t help but notice the model seems to look directly at an orb (bottom left of the picture). Was that photo taken on Halloween? :)
You have good skills. Keep clicking! :D

DigiKam is one of the best tools I know of. I have a similar workflow as you. Postprocessing (basically sharpening) is still done by GIMP but all the other stuff is done by DigiKam. To put in few words, DigiKam is a masterpiece. If the devs also implement fancy transition effects during presentations they will even beat (the rather annoying) iPhoto.
