Congratulations to Jacob Rasmussen of Garland, the winner of the Flickr Photo of the Week contest! Jacob is a multiple winner of our contest. His most recent win was last October and he follows last week’s winner, Lyn Caudle.

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 Jacob.

Title of photo:  Zing

Equipment:  Canon T2i

Tell us more about your photo:  This was shot on a friend’s land in East Texas, about 2 hours drive from DFW. We head down there about twice a year to go camping. Oftentimes when we’re there we’ll shoot off fireworks, which is what this photo is of.
