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.

This Instagrammer really has an eye for capturing what is around her, and you really get an idea of what she sees with the composition of her photos. Take a look at a few of her shots, and be sure to head on over to her gallery for more awesome photos.

This week’s featured Instagram comes from @luckymaria. I really dig this gallery because of the composition of the various landscape shots that Maria captures. When you take a look at the way each image is framed, you really get a sense of what she sees through her iPhone lens as if you were there. Sure, you'll get some great landscape shots, but you'll see her put some cool twists to them as she shows off her creativity. This account is definitely worth checking out, so take a look at a few of her photos and make sure you hit the follow button for some awesome imagery.

Photos by David Guttenfelder

When it comes to Instagram, you will find photos of just about anything you can imagine. There are those that really push the boundaries of mobile photography; then there are those that document their lives to share with the world, as is the case with the Associated Press's Chief Asia Photographer, David Guttenfelder, who gives us a look at life in North Korea. He was recently titled the Instagram Photographer of the Year by TIME magazine for documenting his life in North Korea, giving us a glimpse into a country so many in the outside world have not seen. Here are a few images that he has captured, and if you'd like to see more of his journey, check out his Instagram account here.

Whether it's shots of the beaches overlooking the ocean or the great views from the mountaintops, Victoria's Instagram is a nice break from all the city shots I see. If you want to see some pretty sweet outdoor shots, I suggest you check out a few of her photos and make sure to hit the follow button.
