The iPhone Photography Awards (IPPAwards) have announced the winners of their 16th annual competition. The winning photos come from all over the world and capture the full range of emotions that are expressed in their works. They all have one thing in common: they were all taken with an iPhone.
Launched in 2007, IPPAwards is an annual online photography competition that selects the best iPhone photos, divided into 16 themes. Each year, IPPAwards attracts thousands of photos from authors in more than 140 countries.
This year's Grand Prize winner was Ivan Silva from Mexico, who used an iPhone 12 Pro to capture the award-winning photo titled "Hero."
