A fastening can be defined as a mechanical device which closes or secures something. In this contest I want to see images of any type of fastening - examples of fastenings include door bolts, window latches, buttons, zippers, buckles and laces. The fastening needs to be the focus of your image, so you will need to move in fairly close to your subject so the fastening can be clearly seen. Entries in colour or black & white will work equally well. I look forward to seeing your images of all types of fastening.
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.
