I would like to see photos in which fire itself is the subject, rather than simply a part of the scene. There can be other things in the photo though, as long as fire is clearly the subject. Beyond that, any type of photo is acceptable.
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.
