Open Judging Results
Brief

This contest is open to photographers ranked between 251 and 1000 in this week’s Leaderboard.

Moody skies and shaded landscapes here, as we give some attention to less favourable weather. Dark clouds can be super-atmospheric, and turn the sky into a real feature of your images. In portrait photography they can be a great setting for some more edgy portraiture, or perhaps a perfect mirror for your subject’s mood.

Ranked Contests are a weekly chance to compete alongside photographers of a similar Leaderboard ranking. Three contests with the same theme run at one time - for photographers ranked 1-250; 251-1000; and 1001+. They open Saturday morning after that week’s leaderboard has been updated, and are open for 5 days. They are Premium Contests, Expert-judged, but with no Crowd vote, so are worth 3x the standard ranking points.

How it works

This contest is expert judged only with no rating by the crowd. You will be able to find out how you did when the judging or rating period has closed.
