Thank you to all of the talented photographers who entered their pictures in our weekly iPhone photography contest. This week’s theme was “Buildings” and we had a fantastic selection of images submitted, from modern architecture to abandoned buildings in landscapes. As always, it was very difficult to choose just 30 winners, but here are the final winning iPhone photos of buildings and architecture.

How to Enter the Next Photo Contest
Last week we published a really great tutorial covering 7 Tips For Taking Amazing iPhone Street Photos Of Strangers.
The article is full of useful tips on building your confidence, remaining discreet, and preserving the anonymity of the people you photograph.
Practical tips for remaining discreet include shooting from a distance, blending in with your surroundings, photographing from behind or above, and capturing reflections, shadows or silhouettes.
Once you’ve become more confident, you can then try shooting from a closer distance so that you can capture the facial expressions and emotions of your subjects.
So the new contest theme is Street Photography, and any iPhone street photos can be submitted.
To participate, go to contest.iphonephotographyschool.com in your web browser and sign up or log in.
When you’ve signed in, tap Submit Photos then select the photo you want to upload.
Repeat to upload more photos (you can submit up to 10 images). If you change your mind, you can delete a photo by tapping Delete beneath the image.
All photos must be shot and edited on iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. Images should not have watermarks.
The submission deadline is Sunday, April 10. Winners will be announced on Monday, April 11, and the winning images will also be featured on our iPhone Photography School Facebook page.

So the new contest theme is Street Photography, and any iPhone photos of buildings in landscapes or urban……….Does the last part refer to the Buildings contest as opposed to Street Photography.
Kate Wesson says
Well spotted Mike! It should have said street photos – I’ve altered it now. Thanks for letting us know 🙂
Maria Papakostopoulou says
Hello! Does it matter if we have already posted the pics on Instagram?
Kate Wesson says
Hi Maria. It’s fine to submit photos that you’ve already posted on Instagram or anywhere else 🙂
Joanna Proffitt says
Love that shot, Masako Kozawa!
Masako Kozawa says
Thank you, Joanna!
Faye says
Question…am I correct in assuming that a winning photo in any given contest may be entered in a subsequent contest?
Ranc says
That’s what usually people do and I notice same pics win different contests. However I think a winning picture shouldn’t be eligible for the subsequent contests.
Kate Wesson says
Hi Faye. Yes that’s right – there’s no restriction on which photos you can enter 🙂
Faye says
Great! Thanks for getting back to me.
Darek Sobiecki says
Kate ! Thank you for all your selections of my photographs – it has always given me a lot of pleasure ! Although it has never happened before, today the last letter of my surname is missing – the correct one is Sobiecki 🙂
Kate Wesson says
Hi Darek. Sorry about that – I’ve corrected it now 🙂
Darek Sobiecki says
Thanks Kate ! 🙂
Fiona Grose says
Thanks for including one of mine, always a little buzz, my 2 favourite photos are submitted by Leah Eddy and Masako Kozawa, I always feel a little bit jealous when I see everyone else’s photos but I guess that’s good, keeps up the pressure to improve.
Masako Kozawa says
Thank you, Fiona! Such an honor.
Deena Berton says
A nice surprise to have one of my images included. Thank you. I really like all the images. My favorite is the image by Anna Rezulak. I just love the perspective and the fact that she had the foreground elements of weeds which complimented the derelict building.
Laine Rudolfa says
Congratulations Deena! 🙂
Ruben Carlon says
Wow thank you so much for featuring my pic each contest is more difficult since there is a lot of talent here, congratulation to every one else.
Laine Rudolfa says
Congratulations Ruben! Keep up the good work. 🙂
Suzanne van Putten says
Thank you Kate, I was so excited to see my pic included in the 30 as there is such a high caliber of photography in the list. My favourite is Charles Heszley I am a big fan of reflection in buildings.
Laine Rudolfa says
Congrats Suzanne! Your photo has an amazing perspective. 🙂
Gracia Cid Blasco says
Thank you Kate for including one of my photographs!! I´m so happy today :-). It’s the first time I stand at your weekly contest and it’s been a nice surprise! There’s a lot of talent here. Congrats to everyone else!
Laine Rudolfa says
Congratulations Gracia! And thanks for entering your beautiful photo. 🙂
Mike Lodge says
Any further news on being able to see all of the photos submitted. Also what is the chance of when the images are put onto the FB page that comments are added so that members can maybe understand why particular images were chosen. Thanks.
Je-ann says
Hi Mike, you can now view all the photos submitted. You can tap on the “All Photos” option on the top right of the contest page or access it here: http://contest.iphonephotographyschool.com/all_photos

Mike Lodge says
Hi Je-Ann
Thanks for getting back to me. Funnily enough I did notice that after I sent my message – what about retrospective viewing like last weeks Building contest. I looks like just the current entries.
Regards Mike
Je-ann says
We’re going to look into that. Thank you! 🙂

I enjoy all the photos, the stark black and white, some I know are buildings not certain what direction they are shooting and the photos that are scenes.
Being a hiker I relate to Jason Farrar photograph. It’s eerie when I walk into a scene like his, I never know who is around. It appears tranquil but is it?
