10 gorgeous iPhoneography snaps showcasing the beauty of South Africa

The iPhoneography exhibits in Cape Town and Johannesburg have come and gone, but the images taken have etched their pretty little hues and contrasts into our minds. Now the general public has a chance to vote on what it thinks is the best of the best.

“With more than 400 breathtaking images on display in Johannesburg and Cape Town,” the press release notes, “we have decided to give the community the chance to vote for their favourite images in both cities. Every photo chosen as a finalist in both competitions will be entered into the Community Choice Award.”

At the end of the voting process, the image with the most likes will win the 2014 iPhoneography Community Choice Award. It’s a sweet deal for the winner, but the real winner is the public. We get to browse through some of the best iPhone photography we’ve ever seen. Here are our favourite images from each city:
