Hi, I am writing a program that should display an image file that had been taken earlier using PiCam and raspistill command.
The image is stored in /home/pi and the file name is face.jpg. I want it to show up for a few seconds so user can view the image without clicking anything. The image viewer should close after the time set. Any idea how can I so this? Thanks.

Simple PyQT4/5 application could do that using QLabel to display it and QTimer to close after some time.

Side note: If you're using raspistill with python, maybe you'd be better served by http://picamera.readthedocs.org/ ?
