Open Rating Results
Brief

This contest is open to subscribers (members on the Challenger, Pro and Master subscription tiers). However if you're not a paying subscriber you can still purchase entries for £2 (GBP) per image.

When legendary photographer Hilla Becher was asked why she had such a fascination with industrial architecture, she replied that "A person always is what he or she wants to be, never what he or she is. Even an animal usually plays a role in front of the camera." On the other hand, she added, industrial structures are "honest", "functional" and "reflect what they do." It's this candid brutalism that gives these structures, that might otherwise be considered ugly, artistic potential and makes them such an exciting subject for photographers.

The winner of the expert category and the winner of the crowd vote will receive a $100 USD ON1 voucher for use on their acclaimed photo editing software products.

How it works

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.
