Initially, a scarecrow in a sown field was meant to... scare crows (and other birds perhaps) yet these human constructions evolved into works of art and fantasy that probably communicated little to the birds they were meant to frighten. Enter images of the weird and wonderful scarecrows seen in fields that attract our eyesight and are perhaps not fully appreciated by the birds they are meant to scare!
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.
