The internet has been abuzz lately with rumors of Apple releasing a gold, or champagne colored, iPhone 5s at the September iPhone event. In the spirit of crazy rumors and getting pumped for an Apple event, we'll go along with it for the photo contest this week. Anything gold or champagne colored is fair game but as always, the photo must be taken with an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch and only be edited with iOS apps.

The possibilities are endless and we're excited to see what you guys think up for this one!

The contest begins today and ends Tuesday, August 27th, at 10pm Eastern time.

The prize: Olloclip for iPhone!

Aside from a thumbs up from the entire iMore crew, this week will be giving away an Olloclip for iPhone which will give you the ability to capture wide angle, fisheye, and macro shots straight from your iPhone!

The rules

Submitted photos must have been taken with an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

We'll check the EXIF data of the original file to verify and any edits must have been done with an iPhone or iPad app. No Photoshop, Lightroom, or other external editing programs! If you have external lens accessories such as an Olloclip or other snap-on lens, you are more than welcome to use them.

You can submit as many photos as you'd like, but remember, this is a contest, so make sure you submit your best work!

Resources

Now, before you run off to take your photo, remember that it's not technical skill alone that will claim this prize. Even if you're not the best photographer (yet!), a great eye and a great subject can still get you the win.

However, a little help can never hurt, so make sure you check out our iPhone photography series for some tips.

How to submit

To submit your photos, just submit a post here with your photos attached. That's all there is to it, you're entered!

Because you said we could submit as many photos as we'd like, I took a bunch of photos... maybe one will win!

I took them on my iPhone 5 and only used the auto enhance on the stock photos app to edit them.

Taken last week at Belo Horizonte, Brazil.
It's not the best photo ever, but it's nice, I think.

(iPhone 5, iOS 7, cropped to 16:9, used the filter 'Transfer').

Did a quick screenshot of the pic from my IG account on my desktop browser to post this, let me know if this is against the rules and I'll post the original pic from my phone

Picture taken with an iPod 5th no effects added before or after.
The picture was taken at dusk and that's what made the lightening/shadowing.

Under the land:danielracine.jpg

Texture photo : Under the land. Taken with an iPod 5th, no effect added.
The way the photo was framed it showed the tip of a tree
giving the impression that it belong to the ?textured landscape?.
