Congratulations to Shri Rajan of Frisco, the winner of the Flickr Photo of the Week contest! Shri has won our contest before; his last victory came in July of 2011.  He follows last week’s winner, Christopher Richey.

If you would like to participate in the Flickr Photo of the Week contest, all you need to do is upload your photo to our Flickr group page. It’s fine to submit a photo you took earlier than 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 a 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, here’s more from Shri:

Title of photo: EGASIV (VISAGE), for the upside down image
Equipment: Canon 50D Manual Mode Lens: 70-300
Tell us more about your photo: It was a sea of people in colorful pageantry, celebrating equality in San Francisco. The subject, lay there soaking in the Californian sun. The glasses (green) and her face made for a curious retro vibe; I felt compelled to capture.
