The theme of this week’s iPhone photography contest was beauty and any photos that show some form of beauty could be submitted. As always, there were many really great submissions and some deserving photos had to be left out. With that said, here are my favorites this week.

Which one of these photos is your favorite? Please let everyone know in the comments.
The New Contest Theme And Prize
The new contest theme is landscape photography. Check out my in-depth landscape photography tutorial if you need help taking stunning landscape photos with the iPhone.
The author of my favorite landscape photo will get a SquidCam case and 4 lens system.
To participate tag your best iPhone photos using #IPSLandscape hashtag on Instagram. This hashtag was already used before, so I’ll ignore the photos submitted before this contest was announced.
Your Instagram has to be public or I won’t see your photos. It’s OK to submit old photos as well as new ones, but please do not submit more than 10 photos. All photos must be shot and edited on iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. I do not feature photos with watermarks.
The winners will be featured on this blog and on my Instagram on Sunday, February 16.

Thank you so much for featuring my cowry shell Emil, I was really humbled to be included, when I saw the high quality of these breathtakingly beautiful selections you’ve made. Most appreciated! Also, thank you for your tutorials, I am currently watching the Snapseed Video Tutorial and really enjoyed your Landscape Tutorial yesterday!

Thank you, Emil! This is really affirming. The contest made me really assess what beauty was to me and my photography. More than the win, it gave me a new way of looking at things. Thank you! Looking forward to your next contest!

Emil these contests are wonderful:) I’ve seen and met so many other talented artists by looking at the collection each week. For that I can not thank you enough! And to be able to participate and be selected again is extraordinarily humbling. Thank you! My favorite this week is the landscape by Jamesmichaelmunoz. Love the layers and the warm lighting. Great depth as well:)
