Water Scenes
'Water Scenes' is a global online photo contest hosted by cizucu, open to any creator registered with cizucu. The contest aims to curate outstanding works from submissions, discover new talents as a platform, and support the community.
The theme this time is 'The Charm of Water'.
The emotional appeal of water lies in its ever-changing nature and its ability to bring peace and inspiration to people. Water transforms into various landscapes.
Capture everyday water scenes in your photos and submit them. Whether it's a rainy day scene, the calm surface of a river or pond, or a small puddle found in your garden, any scene is welcome. We look forward to photos that capture the beauty, intrigue, and memorable moments of water.
