Layers in photography go beyond just stacking elements. They create a sense of depth, invite the viewer to explore different planes of the image, and weave a multi-dimensional story. We encourage you to experiment with various techniques - from foreground and background interplay, contrasting textures, to light and shadow dynamics. Whether it's a bustling cityscape, a serene landscape, or an intricate close-up, for this photo contest we invited you to show us how you can transform a simple scene into a layered masterpiece with chances to win a Tamron AF 18-200mm F/3.5-6.3 lens and more cool prizes.
