this email announcement. You can find it at
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2013/02/22/winner-2012-picture-of-the-year/
. Apologies that the link had not been posted here yet.

The latest posts are always displayed on https://blog.wikimedia.org/ ,
and usually also announced on social media (Twitter, Identi.ca,
Facebook, Google+), as was this one.
