Congratulations to Shawn O’Connell, the winner of our Flickr Photo of the Week contest! Extra kudos to Shawn for winning what was without a doubt the most difficult week of the contest to date. Take a look at the first page of our Flickr Group page to know what we’re talking about. Shawn follows last week’s winner, Mike Muse. More from Shawn in a minute.

If you would like to participate, all you need to do is upload your photo to to our Flickr group page. It’s fine to submit a photo you took previous to the current week, but we are hoping that the contest will inspire you to go out and shoot something fantastic this week to share with Art&Seek users. If the picture you take involves another facet of the arts, even better. The contest week will run from Monday to Sunday, and the Art&Seek staff will pick a winner on Monday afternoon. We’ll notify the winner through FlickrMail (so be sure to check those inboxes) and ask you to fill out a short survey to tell us a little more about yourself and the photo you took. We’ll post the winners’ photo on Wednesday.

Now, more from Shawn:

Shawn O’Connell
Title: Inside the Lena Pope Chapel
Equipment: Nikon D70 and Hoya 72 lens filter.
Tell us more about your photo: I really wanted to show the amazing lines and light that the chapel has. It is a wonderful place to photograph. The light and the lines really work well with Hoya infrared filter.

    I love this photo. I want to blow it up and hang it above my sofa.

  • I enjoy this showcase of photographers. I even know one of the artists, Tom Haynes.
    Art and Seek might consider expanding the idea to song of the week, painting of the week, poem of the week, ….
