Whether for defense, safety, visibility, or simply to show off social status, there are many reasons why buildings reach to the skies. The architectural challenge of constructing such enormous structures is matched by the challenge of photographing them. Choosing the suitable vantage point to compose your photo is of critical importance, and can portray the building as an ethereal pinnacle in the distance, or a towering edifice above you.
All photos of tall, free standing buildings are suitable for this contest.
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.
