[IG Weekly] imthejam

Everybody is on their phone.  Thousands of people everyday wear out their thumbs scrolling through photos, deciding which ones to post on Instagram. It’s so easy to do whether you’re a photographer or not; just point, shoot, choose a filter and post whatever you created. From  funny duck face selfies, to breathtaking landscapes, to gritty city streets. Some use it as visual journal giving glimpses of their lives, while others have taken it to another level by creating works of art. All of us at Ruby Hornet are fans of the social media platform and decided to do a weekly series  highlighting people whose Instagrams stand above the rest. Let us know in the comments section if you’d like to be featured, or let us know about some other cool Instagrams. Be sure to follow Ruby Hornet Instagram, too.

There is variety to his photos, yet he still manages to showcase his style of photography throughout his feed. The subject matter, colors, and tones as well as the composition of his photos is why this Instagram account is worth checking out.

VSCO Cam Has Arrived For Android Users

When it comes to mobile photography, there are a ton of apps out there that offer many features and filters when it comes to photo editing. Some are better than others, and depending on your preferences, you might have a favorite app you use for editing your photos. I myself always use VSCO Cam when it comes to editing the photos I take because of the different editing tools and presets. I not only like it as an editing tool, but I like that they offer a feature called VSCO Grid where I can create a gallery for my mobile photography all through the app. Up until now, only iOS users were lucky enough to use VSCO Cam, but that has changed as the app has been made available for Android users, too. If you're looking for a great photo editing app, I suggest that both Android and iOS users check out VSCO Cam. For more information, head over to the official announcement page here.
