iPhone Photography Awards (IPPAWARDS)



iPhone Photography Awards is a competition which is organized for 8 years. What is special about this contest? All images must be taken with an iPhone, iPod or an iPad.
The photos can be taken in different categories: Animals, Abstract, Architecture, Children, Flowers, Food, Landscape, Lifestyle, Nature, News/Events, Panorama, People, Portrait, Seasons, Still Life, Sunset, Travel, Trees and Others. 
All participants compete for the prestigious IPPA Photographer of the Year Award title. The top 3 winners will receive an upcoming product from Apple. The organizers provide also awards for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Place Winners on each category - they will receive a IPPAWARDS certificates and their works will be published on IPPAWARDS online gallery. What's more the 1st place from each of the 19 categories will win a Gold Bar!

I think this is the great initiative because we often have an opportunity to take an excellent photo but we don’t have a camera with us. Thanks to this competition people have possibility to share the good photos which sometimes could be taken accidentally with their iPhones, iPods or iPads.
