Opportunity description
Photocrowd invites all photographers and photography enthusiasts all over the world to participate with their photos in a Photo Contest titled ‘Composition... Rule of Thirds’.
Competition Themes:-
- The rule of thirds is a compositional guideline or ‘rule of thumb’ that can be employed in order to strengthen the composition of one’s images.
- It advises that prominent vertical or horizontal features within the image, such as a horizon, a tree, or a main portrait subject, be placed one third of the way into the image, either vertically or horizontally.
- Hence a horizon would be placed either one third of the height of the image from the top, or the bottom, in order to give the most pleasing composition for the viewer.
- In reality of course one often relies more on gut feel, and not all scenes offer the possibility of using this rule. But it can be a handy guide to keep in one’s head when playing around with the composition of a scene.
Competition Timeline:-
- Entries close: 1 October, 2021.
- Judging: From 1 October, 2021 to 10 October, 2021.
- Winners announced: 10 October, 2021.
Eligibility criteria
- 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.
