In January 2013 I started a weekly iPhone photography contest, and over the past year about 13,000 amazing iPhone photos from every possible genre have been submitted. In this post I want to highlight the best of the best, and show the world how much the iPhone camera can really do. Please note that this page may take a while to load on slower connections.

Thank you Spyros!
much seems have to be taken with a DSLR…
Not true. Maybe one or two have slipped through but certainly not more. Keep in mind that there are external lenses, apps that can add depth of field, and so on.
Congratulations to all and thank you so much Emil for all your efforts and support.
Thanks Tuba!
Hi Emil,thank you very much for featuring two of my photos.
So much emotions in the air)) I was very excited seeing my works here.
I could not ask for anything better than that.
Thank you so much for your wonderful site and your attention.
Thank you Jenya for your continued participation in the contest, I think you haven’t skipped a week since you first started. I appreciate it!
Fantastic selection of shots!
Some of these are absolutely wonderful photos, but 90% of them are all just smothered by after effects in photoshop. To many vignetting purposefully with a cheap instagram app. The iphone allows for people to take photos that can compete with mid-high level dslr’s depending on the photographer by taking a photo rather than just taking a “picture” then adding an effect. Get fucking crafty like most photographers. Use lighting and props, and maybe use a glass bowl for a fisheye effect. That is true photography, not just “Snap, add effect, done”.
I’m sure you have a smartphone – right? No need to get rid of your DSLR, but experiment with both 🙂
Thank you, these photos still blow me away today 🙂
