Dan Liu of China was awarded the Second Place prize for his untitled iPhone 11 Pro Max photo of an astronaut traveling across a Mars-like landscape. And the Third Place award went to Jeff Rayner for a black-and-white portrait of a young girl mid-jump on her Los Angeles sidewalk, called Side-Walking on Air and captured on an iPhone X.

In an additional 17 categories, top-three winners were awarded prizes from Australia, Germany, Bangladesh, China, Greece, Italy, Israel, the Netherlands, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States.
