Mobile Photography – Instagram TAKEOVER with @sunflowerof 21 – Days 5 – 10
We are so excited with our latest Instagram TAKEOVER this time with @sunflowerof21 – Elaine Taylor, she is a respected and very talented mobile photographer. Taylor has been granted full access to our Instagram account and she is doing a very impressive job. We are very proud of her!
On Day 5 @sunflowerof21 highlighted the work of @christinemignon – Christine Mignon and she writes “@sunflowerof21 here with feature number four from the #theappwhisperer tag. I adore Christine’s work – her creative use of Hipstamatic (my first and favourite app) is truly inspiring. This image is one of my favourites from this year – I love the leading lines, the bold colours and those tiny silhouetted figures. It’s just fantastic!”
On Day 6 @sunflowerof21 highlighted the work of @luison_street – Luis Rodriquez (whom I had the pleasure to steal an evening with on my recent trip to Paris – a very talented street photographer). Anyway, @sunflowerof21 writes “Hello. @sunflowerof21 here with my fifth selection from the #theappwhisperer tag. Street photography is not something I do much of, but it’s one of my favourite genres. Luis is brilliant at it. He’s one of the first street photographers that really caught my eye, and I have been a huge fan of his work ever since. I adore his candid captures of people going about their daily lives. If you don’t know Luis’ work, go and take a look at his feed now. He’s definitely a #followfriday recommendation!”
On Day 7 @sunflowerof21 highlighted the work of @iphonefineartphotography and she writes “So far during my takeover, I’ve featured images by some of my favourite igers. People who I have admired for a while. I’ve also been scrolling through the #theappwhisperer tag looking for something new and inspiring. I discovered the stunning creations of @iphonefineartphotography. He has created a wonderful gallery of work. I was particularly drawn to this image. It’s just so beautifully done ~ @sunflowerof21″
On Day 8 @sunflowerof21 highlighted the work of @yoshiboworks – Yoshihisa Egami and she writes “@sunflowerof21 here with my seventh feature from the #theappwhisperer tag. Today I’ve chosen @yoshiboworks – a fantastic mobile photographer, and one of the most supportive and engaging igers I have connected with. I really enjoy seeing the snapshots of daily life with his boy like this one. This is one of my favourites – the composition is great, the light and subtle reflection in the window are beautiful and his son’s expression is just wonderful. A lovely snapshot in time is captured here”.
On Day 9 @sunflowerof21 highlighted the work of @clarisse_debout – Clarisse Debout and she writes “I’ve scrolled through the #theappwhisperer tag many times over the past few days (gosh – what a truly fabulous gallery of work it is). I had planned to feature one of Clarisse’s stunning nature shots during my takeover, but each time I’ve scrolled through the tag I’ve been drawn to this gorgeous portrait, so I just had to share it”
On Day 10 @sunflowerof21 highlighted the work of @lisamitchellphotography and she writes “@sunflowerof21 here with my ninth feature from the #theappwhisperer tag. I saved Lisa’s image for today as I knew I was going to have the pleasure of meeting her at her solo exhibition in Lincoln UK this morning. I’ve admired her work on social media for a long time, but to see it printed and exhibited in front of me was fantastic. Her work is a stunning example of just how beautiful and creative mobile photography can be. Each image tells a story and evokes an emotion. And Lisa was as fabulous as I thought she’d be. It was a great day!”
