As far I know, there has not been yet a contest about circumpolar photography. As astrophysicist and amateur photographer I would like to see your best shots combining stunning landscapes with the amazing light curves of the stars around the pole star.
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.
