This contest is for your photos of tools, which have been captured at the closest focus. There is no need to use special macro or close-up kit, (although you can if you have it); just work as close as your camera lens will allow. Try to capture some of the great detail in the tool's burnishing or woodgrain. Working close-in encourages some abstract graphic form and has the ability to show details we otherwise miss.
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.
