This week’s featured Instagram comes from @whighfield. I really enjoy this Instagram gallery because you get a bunch of awesome imagery ranging from portraits to shots of the Big Apple. This photographer clearly has a great style, and I definitely enjoy her portraits, but what I think is really awesome are her shots that involve fog. There is something haunting about the images she captures, be it the scenery or someone walking through foggy weather. It's hard for me to explain all of this, so I'll let her photos do the talking below. Make sure head on over to her Instagram for more.

This week’s featured Instagram comes from @ditsen. I'm a really big fan of food photography, and some of my favorite accounts belong to those that are food photographers. I'm not talking about photos of someone's lunch from some fast food chain, but people that have a passion for creating in the kitchen. That's why I'm drawn to this Instagrammer's gallery because you can tell a lot of effort and creativity went into each dish and each photo. When going through her gallery, you'll get a lot of goodies and some other stunning landscape shots from time to time, but the focus here is the food. Be sure to check out some of her photos below, and head on over to her Instagram for more.

This week’s featured Instagram comes from @charleyzheng. If there's one thing I do like, it's landscape photography and seeing incredible shots of mother nature. Maybe that's why I'm drawn to this Instagram gallery because its photo composition and the amazing landscapes shots of the Pacific Northwest. It's a nice change from seeing skyscrapers and the daily stuff of urban living, and the views aren't something you can't get in a big city.
