These are the Winners of Apple’s ‘Night Mode’ Photo Contest PetaPixel

Apple has officially crowned the winners of its “Shot on iPhone” Night Mode photo contest, choosing six photos out of “thousands of submissions” that were all taken with the iPhone 11/Pro/Pro Max’ newfound low-light photography mode.

The original terms indicated that there would be five winners, but apparently the judges just couldn’t eliminate any more of the photos below, so six images were crowned and six smartphone photographers will start to see their Night Mode photos showing up all over Apple’s website, social networks, and marketing materials worldwide.

The winners are officially live on Apple.com, the Apple Instagram account, and will appear on billboards around the world.

But it’s not just a contest for “exposure.” As we reported in January, Apple’s terms for the contest clearly state that the company will be paying a licensing fee for the privilege of using these images to advertise their newest phones.
