When we’re out and about with our cameras it can be easy to forget that the most interesting shots aren’t always staring us straight in the eye. In this case we’re focussing on the radically different view of the world that opens up to us when we look down. Looking down from a building in the way that Cartier Bresson used to do when shooting Parisian streets, or just looking down to see what’s on the road in front of you, or the patch of land you’re walking across.
This Premium Contest is worth 1.5x the standard points towards your Leaderboard ranking. It’s Expert-judged AND crowd-rated, with your score from each combined. Find out more about ranking points here. Our Experts are some of the world’s finest photographers, who select the best images, and provide valuable feedback to help you improve.
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.
