Ruins

Open Rating Results
Brief

Old and decaying doesn't always equal 'ugly'. Ruins are the perfect example of this. There's a magic in ruins, a certain nostalgia; a communication between the present and the past. The half-understood arrangements of arches and cornices evoke times past and a certain gothic drama. A photographer can choose to focus on the formal architectural features, or explore the aesthetic through romantic compositions or dramatic post-processing. Which ruinous path will you take?

Winners and highly commended finishers will gain LumeJet prizes worth £30, as well as exposure across Photocrowd.

The winner will receive a LumeJet voucher worth over £30 - earning you either a high-quality 1m print or equivalent value products! The winner and high-placed finishers will also gain exposure on Photocrowd’s ‘Best photos’ page and could make it onto our social media channels!

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.
