Occasionally, you come across architecture that is so unique and awe-inspiring as to be instantly recognisable. It's true for the Sydney Opera House, the Shard, the Empire State Building, the Burj Al Arab; buildings of such startling originality that they come to define a culture, a movement or a generation. In other words, an 'icon'. These buildings have often been photographed many times before, so it can be a challenge to find an original angle. Good luck.
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.
