Note: when not running in fullscreen mode ( -F), you may need to supply the -scale-down command switch so the pictures fill your desktop, but not display at their actual size (which could be 4000x3000 and would not fit the screen). You could also add this command, with slight modification, as a 'custom' action, context menu item in a file manager such as Thunar ( feh -F -D 3 -cycle-once %F): see my answer here regarding Thunar custom actions.
