LAST MONTH’S CONTEST


K. Swanson of Lake Forest Park was the winner of last month’s contest, which featured a photo from the annual Solstice Parade in Seattle’s Fremont neighborhood. The photo showcased the “*in*famous” nearly naked but body-painted bicyclists that roll through the parade every year.
