5. Instagram and its Impact on the World of
Photography
“Instagram led to a very interesting phenomenon that
could possibly change the world of photography from one
end to another. Almost suddenly people who seldom took
pictures of their daily life encounters, began to
photograph the world around them on a daily basis,
increasing and discovering a love for photography. Some
have gone even further and consequently decided to
study photography.” (Prives, n.d)
He continued .. “Instagram provides amateur
photographers with the tool to share their art with others
while receiving additional tools for developing creativity
and observation to detail”

7. Why is it useful and important
software
Instagram is a very global community and has a flat-world feel.
“Instagram as a social network gives us the opportunity to meet new
people and see the world through the eyes of others who live in
different, new, interesting places and learn about their culture. The
network allows us to follow a guy from New York and see the Big
Apple in an entirely different and cultural way from how it is usually
projected. We can keep track of people from different countries and
see that life in a certain place is not the way we assume or are led to
believe. Even the way we see our country can be dynamically
challenged when it is reflected in the eyes of another person with
different opinions, views and artistic vision.” (Prives, n.d)

10. Social
Instagram, like any other social network, is based around having
friends or followers. On Instagram you ‘follow’ people. At the top of
your profile (or anyone’s profile) you will see the username, profile pic,
how many photos have been uploaded, how many followers the
account has, and how many they are following. When you follow
someone, their photos show up in your stream. The only other things
you can do are ‘like‘ photos and comment on them. Both are
appreciated. People ask questions in the comments, like ‘where was
this taken’ or ‘what app did you use for that?’. Once you get into using
Instagram, you will see how laid back people are and how much fun
they are having. It’s currently a very friendly community.

Instagram lets you see which of your twitter and facebook friends are
using instagram and easily start following them. There is also a ‘Invite
Friends’ feature, but that simply links to your address book ~ and the rest
is up to you. Instagram will also suggest users if you like. The Popular
Page shows you which pix currently have the most Likes. You will
inevitably find 2 cat pictures, 3 sunsets and 4 with really amazing lines
(people seem to like symmetry). You can click on any photo on the
popular page and see all the other photos posted by that person, and
many times you will want to follow.
