Michelle Fucchansky's winning photo is captioned \"One of my favourite places to go on my lunch break\"<\/p><\/div>\n

A campus-wide photo contest held in May highlighted some of the stunning places on campus through the eyes of students, faculty and staff.<\/p>\n

The #YUDiscover Photo Contest was designed to encourage the York community to discover and share spaces at the University's campuses.<\/p>\n

Entrants were asked to snap a photo on campus, share it on Twitter or Instagram, and include the #YUDiscover hashtag with their entry.<\/p>\n

The winner, selected by York's Communications & Public Affairs Division, was selected May 29 and won a pair of gold tickets to the Rogers Cup event, which will be held on campus at the Aviva Centre from Aug. 5 to 13.<\/p>\n

York staff member Michelle Fucchansky was selected as the winner, and her photo was chosen based on originality, inspiring caption and visual impact.<\/p>\n

Of her winning photo, Fucchansky said\u00a0\"It is my favourite lunch spot on campus and I never thought I'd win. It just looked so beautiful I had to take a photo of it.\"<\/p>\n
