Congratulations to Elizabeth Buchanan of Richardson, the winner of the Flickr Photo of the Week contest! Elizabeth has won our little contest multiple times now. Her last win was in December. She follows last week’s winner, Evan Waygood.

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 Tuesday to Monday, and the Art&Seek staff will pick a winner on Friday 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 Tuesday.

Flickr Photo of the Week winner, Elizabeth Buchanan

Now here’s more from Elizabeth.

Title of photo: “Dandelion Seed Head”

Equipment: Canon 100 mm macro lens

Tell us more about your photo: This photo was made at Breckinridge Park in Richardson, February 2016 as noted on the Flickr page. This park is close to me and I frequent it often except when it’s too hot for this senior lady to venture out too long. I had just rented a Canon 100 mm macro lens and was trying it out and was pretty close to this seed head and low to the ground. Nature is beautiful, even in a weed.
