In this contest I want to see images which show elderly/aged men or women. Societies across the world often have differing attitudes towards the elderly - some may embrace their wisdom, life skills and vast knowledge and include and cherish them within the family and wider society. Others may isolate and marginalise them, feeling their useful days are past, leading to loneliness and decline. You may wish to show a portrait, showing well-worn skin or a lifetime of emotions, or wider scenes containing one or a number of elderly/aged people, which may show any of the varying realities of ageing. Please only enter images of people. I look forward to seeing your entries.
Every photo submitted will be available for the crowd to rate once the submissions period has ended. You can see all the images uploaded to a contest, but will need to rate them to see how they’re ranked once the rating period begins.
Some contests on Photocrowd also have a judge. After the submission period closes the judge chooses their favourite images and writes some image reviews. The crowd and judge results will be announced on the same day.
