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.

This week’s featured Instagram comes from @angie178. If there’s one thing I do like, it’s landscape photography from places I've never been too. I’m drawn to this Instagram gallery because of its photo composition and the amazing landscapes shots from of our neighbors up north, Canada. Angie takes some great shots of what's around her and does some crazy stuff to her visuals when it comes to editing. Be sure to check out some of her photos here, and head on over to her Instagram for more of her work.

The TSA gets a hard rep from casual flyers, but their job is justified, despite being completely blown out of proportion in the media. Sure, there are a few policies that will are confusing, but there are reasons behind them. For those that don't know, I used to work at O'Hare International Airport for close to four years before I began writing full-time for Ruby Hornet, and the stuff I've seen on a day-to-day basis with the TSA would shock you, both by theirs and passengers' actions. Nevertheless, the TSA's Instagram account has been popping up across the internet this week, and with good reason. They've begun uploading some of the prohibited items they've come across in passengers' carry-on bags, ranging from phone tasers to hidden comb knives and dead grenades. It's a change of pace from our typical IG Weekly features, but one that definitely warranted a spotlight. Check out some of the crazy items below, and be sure to follow TSA's Instagram for more illegal shenanigans.

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.
