“Many thanks to Inez & Vinoodh, Mickalene Thomas, and Trunk Xu for capturing some of the first photographs with iPhone 17 Pro Max. Tonight was such a beautiful display of #ShotOniPhone photography,” the Apple boss wrote while sharing the pictures.

What does the first photo show?

Each photo has an “alt text” attached to it. The first reads, “Two people hold hands as they run down a city sidewalk, trailing a piece of flowing red fabric. The sun sets behind them, with a gas station and beige and white buildings in the background."

What does the second photo show?

The second one says, “Three dancers in form-fitting bodysuits strike a synchronized pose on a concrete surface, facing away from the camera. The image is in black and white, with a backdrop of dense trees and a clear sky.”

What does the third photo show?

The third explains, “Four skateboarders are captured mid-action at a skatepark. The two in the foreground skate down a ramp, while one sits on the edge in the top left, watching. The fourth skateboarder walks across the top of the ramp with their board in hand.”
