This contest is for your photos of insect shadows. Entries may include the insect and its shadow, or just the shadow, but the shadow should dominate the image. To create prominent, dramatic and interesting shadows you could experiment with lighting, maybe shooting during the golden hour for long shadows, under harsh sunlight for dramatic shadows, or under artificial light for more unusual shadows. Photos can be in colour or monochrome.
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.
