I love seeing a good black and white portrait, which will often show older people with a lot of texture and wrinkles in their skin. However, the idea for this contest is to celebrate the younger years - newborn to about mid twenties. Please enter only black & white images, and the portraits should be of young people below their mid twenties. Anything I deem to be outside of this age range will not be included in my judging.
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.
