Open Rating Results
Brief

Africa is the world’s second-largest continent - a huge, varied landscape that’s home to over a billion people, as well as a diverse selection of plant and animal species. Africa has been photographed countless times, but it can be easy to revert to cliché when attempting to capture this magnificent and complicated place in a single image. For this challenge, we want you to give us a sense of the real, everyday Africa instead - from work to family life, in urban spaces or rural areas. Great prizes from MindShift Gear and exposure for the winners!

How it works

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.
