Oompa loompas, leopards and Buddhist monks: The best of the iPhone Photography Awards 2024
From Buddhist pupils to tree-climbing leopards, this year's winning entries in the 17th annual iPhone Photography Awards (IPPA Awards) are nothing short of spectacular.
The competition, which began in 2007, received submissions from more than 140 countries across many different categories, including Animals, Portrait, Nature and Travel.
"Whether it’s through the lens of a seasoned professional or a passionate amateur, these images remind us that every moment holds a story waiting to be told, and every story has the power to resonate deeply with the human spirit" says the IPPA Awards.
