Photos are collected solely for consideration in an ongoing collage art project by Tadej. Selected images may be digitally post-processed and combined with other submitted photographs to form composite artworks. These artworks may be published on tadej.photo or displayed in physical exhibitions. No photo will be published, post-processed, or combined with other images without a second explicit confirmation from you by email.
