Follow, originally known as School of Orange Fish Following Leader and known as Follow me in Whistler builds 2419 to 2464, is a wallpaper included in Windows XP, licensed from Corbis. It was taken by Warren Morgan as part of photographic duo R.W. Jones (the other member being Rick Rappaport)[1], who also took XP Release Candidate 1's Crew sample picture. It depicts a school of orange fish following a butterfly fish. It appears to be a digital composite as the same orange fish is pasted multiple times.

The image was also used as a user account picture in XP called fish, along with a card in cards.dll. In both cases, it is cropped to just the fish the orange fish are following.

Similar to Bliss, it also originates from Westlight, a small stock photo agency bought by Corbis in 1998. Although none of Morgan's images are commercially available anymore, a high-resolution version has surfaced, along with a shot featuring only one of the orange fishes in a darker ocean. There is also a version showing just the leading fish, though no high-resolution version is available.
