Contrasting sizes of big & small are the focus of this challenge! Sometimes the best way to see a subject is when it’s in contrast to something else. A tiny newborn’s hand in contrast to his mother’s finger, or a massive ship side by side a sailboat – helps you appreciate their scale and beauty in a different way than if they were alone.

OFFICIAL ENTRY RULES
To officially enter the Creative Challenge, you must tag your three submissions with creative-challenge-bigsmall. You can then view them and everyone else’s submissions on the DISPLAY PAGE (it updates about every hour). To find out more about this, read the Using Tags on Creative Challenges post.
Submission Guidelines
1. Our editors look for sharp, clear horizontal images that are at a minimum resolution of 800×600 (submissions can have larger resolutions than this). Currently, vertical images cannot fit in the homepage template. Therefore, we cannot publish vertical or narrow panoramic images.
2. Images with added text or images, including watermarks, logos, copyright symbols, graphic borders, frames and time stamps, will not be considered for first place or being featured on the homepage at a later date. Collages, however, are acceptable. Images submitted should be your own.
3. Please do not submit pictures that have already been featured on the homepage.
4. The Creative Challenge runs from 12:01 a.m. on April 28 to 12:00 p.m. on May 10 (all times EST).
5. 3 pictures per person (regardless of how many member accounts you have) tagged exactly (including hyphens) with: creative-challenge-bigsmall
*Note:Images that don’t meet the exact guidelines can be submitted and viewed for everyone to enjoy, but please understand that we cannot publish images that don’t meet minimum guidelines on the homepage. Also, now that you’re tagging your entries, you don’t need to post links in the comments section anymore.
NEXT CHALLENGE THEME: City Life
Many of our challenges focus on the beauty in nature, from gardens, valleys, mountains and lakes. But beauty isn’t limited to the countryside, so for the next challenge we’ll turn our lenses to the hustle and bustle of the city. From amazing vistas of skyscraper filled skies, to the people, places and faces that make the cities around us so unique, this challenge is sure to inspire!
