Congratulations to Samarpita Sengupta of Dallas, the winner of the Flickr Photo of the Week contest. Samarpita has won our contest several times before. Her last win came in April of 2017.  She follows last week’s winner, Michael Hogan of North Richland Hills.

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.

Now here’s more from Samarpita.

Title of photo: “kids+summer+splash park+camera = temporary respite from life’s many stresses and sadness”

Equipment: Canon 6D+Canon 50mm f1.8

Tell us about your photo: This was shot in the City of Carrollton splash park, on a fun Friday I went there with my 4-year-old and his friend to beat the heat. Just the joy of seeing kids have fun in water was enough to melt away the stresses of adult life!
