Buildings
I've been doing a lot of architectural photography lately and would love to see what types of buildings you all have near you that you can take photographs of. One thing I have learned is that architectural photography is a lot harder than just finding a cool building and taking pictures. You really need to pay attention to all the different lines when you frame your shots. Also, having some people somewhere in the shot can give the scene some life.
I can't wait to see what you all get for this theme. It is always cool seeing different buildings from around the world and from different time periods.
How is the Deranged Photography Contest set up?
Every Sunday, I will announce a new theme for the week and you will have until Saturday to get your submission in. There will be two tiers for the contest. A professional tier and an amateur tier. When making your submission, you must state which tier you will be competing in. I usually get a lot of entries, so make sure to follow all the rules or else your submission won't count and will likely be ignored.
I will not allow any entry that is not your own original photography. If you are caught plagiarizing someone else's work, you will be flagged and banned from participating in any future contest. So make sure that the photos you are submitting are ones that you personally take.
All entries must be done through the Liketu front end. One of the goals of the contest is to create more awareness of Liketu, so make sure that you create your post from https://liketu.com/.
You only get one entry per week, so make sure to spend some time on getting a good photo and creating a fun post about your entry. You will need to submit a link to your post in the comment section of the contest announcement post and you will need to include at least one image from your post in the comment you make. You are encouraged to share more than one image in your post. The more effort you put into your post, the more chance you have for curation and possibly winning your tier.
On top of a chance for curation from Liketu, the top three entries in each tier will be awarded as follows:
| Place | Professional | Amateur |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | 8 Hive | 4 Hive |
| 2nd | 5 Hive | 3 Hive |
| 3rd | 3 Hive | 2 Hive |
