iPhoneography (shooting pictures with an iPhone) is becoming more popular, with pro iPhoneographers (those who earn money with their iPhone photos) popping up everywhere. The 'Creative Boost' contest lets those who own an iPhone or iPod touch show off their creativity for the chance to win a MacBook Air.
The Creative Boost site lets contestants upload pictures to their iPhone or iPod touch, process with an iPhone Photo filtering app and submit the photo back. All the pictures were taken by iPhoneographers themselves, and the app used for processing -- the FX Photo Studio -- is basically the most popular photo filtering app available today.
Submissions are posted on the Creative Boost site and every week iPhoneographers name two lucky people who get App Store gift cards. At the end of December, they will choose contest winner to win the MacBook Air. The contest started on November 19th and is supported by iPhoneography.com, one of the web’s top sources for iPhone photos.
