Macro plants and flowers

In association with Photocrowd

Open Rating Results
Brief

Plants and flowers in their very nature are beautifully formed and a joy to look at, and shooting them in macro allows a whole new appreciation of their structures and colours. A strict definition of macro is one in which the size of the subject on the sensor or film is at least as large as the subject itself, although we can be a little looser with that definition here. The aim is to show off our subjects in ways that would not be possible to appreciate with the naked eye.

This contest is open to Photocrowd subscribers (Challenger/Pro/Master), or by purchasing entries.

Our Premium Contests are judged by some of the world’s finest photographers, who select the best submitted imagery, and provide valuable feedback that explains their choices, and helps you improve. Judges are confirmed towards the end of a contest. Premium Contests also carry more ranking points, so if you’ve got your eyes set on climbing the leaderboard, they’re a great way to achieve that.

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.
