Instagramming India
This is a wonderful movement. For all the people around the world who see these glorious pictures of foreign countries and think how wonderful they must be to visit the movement “Instagramming India” has shed some light on the nature of the confines of an Instagram picture. The movement seeks to show things outside of borders; showing a small Instagram crop of a picture and then the surrounding area outside the picture.
So a beautiful child smiling might be surrounded by poverty and decay, a glorious sunset might show littering and devastation along the shore line. It’s a stark reminder to all of us in the industry that we need to extremely careful about the information we share and how we present our work; we have an obligation to the people viewing our images.
