Thank you to all of you who submitted such incredible photos in our weekly iPhone photography contest. This week’s theme was “Minimal” and any iPhone photos with a simple, minimalist composition could be submitted. The quality of entries this week was fantastic, making it very difficult to choose just 30 winners. I’ve had to leave many stunning images out, but here’s my final selection of iPhone photos that make excellent use of negative space, simple composition, and abstract shapes and patterns.

How to Enter the Next Photo Contest
Last week we published a tutorial covering 10 tips for incredible iPhone street photography. The article covered tips on finding a good location, shooting in different kinds of light, photographing strangers and capturing movement using burst mode.
The article also discussed tips for taking interesting photographs of architecture, such as shooting from different perspectives, using leading lines, finding symmetry and creating abstract images.
So the new contest theme is Urban & Street Photography, and any iPhone photos captured in an urban environment can be submitted. This can include photos of buildings and architecture as well as people in street environments.
To participate, simply tag your iPhone photos using IPSUrban tag on EyeEm. You can tag photos in the description field when you upload them, or when you edit the description of a photo that has already been uploaded (tap the three dots icon to edit a photo).
All photos must be shot and edited on iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. Please upload photos to EyeEm in full resolution and without any watermarks to make sure we can feature them on the website. Please do not submit more than 10 photos each week.
The submission deadline is Sunday, May 17.

Wow, this must’ve been so tough to select because I had trouble selecting my favorite this time. There are a few that I really like, but my favorite goes to @cocu_liu. It’s just so clean, literally.
