For this contest I want photographs of cold places, polar regions, mountain areas, in fact anywhere cold, snowy and difficult to live in. The images should contain either animals (not including people) or plant life or both. I look forward to seeing your images of animals or plants living in cold hostile environments. I do not want to see images which have been edited using computer software such as Photoshop to add animals etc. to snow scenes.
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.
