For this challenge I would like you to strip away the colour from a SINGLE FLOWER HEAD, with or without the stem. Black and white photography can show little details that get missed in colour images. I will be looking for originality, good lighting, sharpness, angle, texture and imaginative thinking. The background should be plain with all detail on the subject. You can take your shot inside or outside you decide - you could try holding a piece of black or white paper behind the bloom. You will be surprised how beautiful a flower head is in black and white. Importantly I require your image to have a title. As always, follow the brief, and remember this contest is BLACK & WHITE ONLY. (If people do not follow the brief, please mark them as "not on brief")
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.
