Breaking the Rules of Composition

Created and judged by ratlas

Open Rating Results
Brief
This contest is created and judged by a member of the Photocrowd community. Want to run your own? Find out more >

Please contribute a photograph in which the main focal point does not follow the usual 'rules' of composition, such as avoiding composing according to the 'rule of thirds'. However, this rule-breaking must be for the positive effect of the story that you are trying to convey. An example could be a runner entering from the edge of an otherwise empty frame, or an abandoned warehouse with a mouse positioned in the bottom corner of the frame.

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.
