Brief
Black and white photography might sound simple, however, successful monochrome imagery can actually be very complex. You must have a good understanding of tone, contrast and composing using lines, shapes and textures. The absence of colour does, however, allow you to focus completely on the shape, form and textures around you, so we want to see your best black and white images featuring bold patterns and striking shapes. Create impactful high-contrast shots that are centred completely around the shape, form and patterns found in your subject for the chance to win great prizes.
A $300 (USD) value prize package provided by Lexar who have prizes for both the expert and crowd winner. You can also be featured in Digital Photographer magazine.

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.
