Brief
In this Canon-only contest - brought to you by PhotoPlus magazine - we’re asking to see the best home portraits. We know that many of you will be currently house bound due to the Coronavirus pandemic, so we want to see how creative you can get with portraiture at home. Use flash or natural light, take pictures of the family members in your household or shoot a self-portrait, and take them in the home or in your garden!
See the 'Brief in detail' tab for important entry requirements.
The expert's first choice will win a download for Affinity Photo for PC or Mac desktop worth £48.99, and your picture will have a chance of being published in PhotoPlus magazine, as we'll print our favourite top ten portraits!
The brief in detail
DO: Ensure your photo was taken on a Canon camera. Have EXIF data in your photo (or supply the camera settings in the info section). Provide a title for your photo. Write a description of the photo you're entering of at least 50 words to give us the background of what the image is of and how the it was taken. A little context can go a long way! Check your photo has a resolution of at least 3000 pixels on the longest edge of the photo as we will be printing our top picks in PhotoPlus magazine. DO NOT: Have a watermark on your photograph. Supply images taken on camera systems other than Canon. Submit low-resolution pics

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.
