Brief

Polaroid is a well known brand of camera widely used in the 70's and 80's but was produced in the 40's in its original form. The majority of us have used or seen a Polaroid camera before. What I am after here is that Polaroid feel to an image where there are lots of vivid colours but the blues are very pastel like and hazy. Modern day photoshop can help create this effect.

The subject matter can be anything and in fact you can also create the look of the original polaroid style printed frame for extra effects.

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.
