I follow Magnum, among a few other things, on Instagram. There's a fantastic

I am trying to keep things simple and stupid here. I am nearly done clearing 
space so I can have a permanent tabletop photography studio. I will be able to 
leave my box lights, background screen, and tabletop (actually a Workmate 
draped to match the screen) set up with a spare tripod so all I have to add is 
the camera. Once I start making beauty shots of my antique electronics 
collection some of the hi-rez images will get posted on a special set of pages 
in my domain with links posted here. I see no sense in trying to cope with 
Instragram, Flickr, or anywhere else when I have plenty of unused capacity in 
my own domain. I may not create the world's flashiest web pages, but my domain 
has always been more concerned with content than appearance.

Re: OT: Instagram

[Bruce Walker]

The encouragement is not so much from "Instagram the app" -- into
which you can toss whatever you darned well please -- but "Instagram
the marketing vehicle and popularity contest".

It is touted by enthusiasts as a way to get your work noticed (and so
make yourself more marketable), but to do that you find you have to
create work that is popular on IG, and that leads to a silly circular
feedback loop with everyone producing the same muck.

If you just want to share your work conveniently with a few friends
and family, it works just fine for that.

This young lady has been visiting us lately in the mornings when we ar in
the hot tub.  She has, however, been quite skittish and avoiding my
attempts to obtain a portrait.  This is the best I have been able to
capture so far.

GESO: Papilio Nireus (Green Banded Swallowtail)

[Alan C]

Some shots of a Green Banded Swallowtail sipping water on what's left of 
my lawn this morning. It would not sit still & I couldn't get closer 
than  about 5m. There is a little motion blur is some images but I left 
them to show the green on the upperside of the wings. Relatively uncommon.
