Microstock agency Fotolia has just announced the winners for their Instant Contest in 2014: The image “Melbourne Coloration” was the most downloaded image from the Instant collection which features photos shot and/or processed with mobile devices only.
The image was uploaded by French contributor Robin Michel who will receive 5000 cashable credits for having scored the best selling image in the Instant collection in 2014. His winning image was shot with an iPhone 5 while he was living in Australia.

As the Android version of the Fotolia Instant app was published later, Fotolia announced a separate contest for Android phone users: Shot with a Samsung S3 phone, “Evening at the Lake 05” by Patrizia Tilly was the winning image of that second contest.
Remarkably, both images are showing a summer feel, anonymous people and a multitude of colors. Along with the second and third places (which will be shown in Fotolia's blog later) they show a clear trend towards spontaneous moments being chosen over the clean images that made microstock successful in the past.
