Apple Shares Some of the Best Shot on iPhone Images for World Photography Day

It is World Photography Day, and to celebrate, Apple has shared some of the most impressive photographs from their #shotoniPhone campaign from around the world. Not only are they beautiful, they are an important reminder that the best camera is the one you have with you. 

Each image features a favorite place of the photographer who took it. Not only is it impressive to see what you can accomplish with a phone camera nowadays, it is also an important reminder that technique and creative vision will always beat having the most expensive specialized equipment.

With my old iPhone 8. Phone cameras have come on a long way!

Lovely shot!

The Daniel Triassi photo is an obvious sky replacement. Probably others too.

Shot using an iphone x. Al Mamzar, Dubai, UAE.

What a beautiful shot!

with the exception of a few they mostly look like "snap shots"
