We're used to sports photography showing action on the field of play, but here we're focussing on portraiture of sportspeople. For an interesting challenge, see if someone you know, or a local team, will pose for photos fresh from the field of play - the sweat and exhaustion of the game still on them. Or explore taking a portrait style image of someone whilst they're engaged in their sport, or with their sports equipment.
This Premium Contest is worth 1.5x the standard points towards your Leaderboard ranking. It’s Expert-judged AND crowd-rated, with your score from each combined. Find out more about ranking points here. Our Experts are some of the world’s finest photographers, who select the best images, and provide valuable feedback to help you improve.
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.
