Has smoking ever been a more controversial activity than it is now? It's strongly discouraged, it's often banned, and it's unanimously acknowledged across the planet as a highly toxic pastime. However it also has a contentious history of being used to glamourise life – in film, advertising, adolescence. In this contest we'd like you to document smoking – either through a direct reference or a more nuanced approach.
Winners and highly commended finishers will gain LumeJet prizes worth £30, as well as exposure across Photocrowd.
Crowd-voting only: 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!
LumeJet voucher may be used against any online order and international shipping in a single transaction at lumejet.com within 28 days.
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.
