After all, customers want to distribute the analog product digitally, mostly on social networks."
Huh? What? Where?
With 40 billion photographs on Instagram, I don't know how you are supposed to find photographs you like. Anyway, I thought I would try again, so I logged on, and since I hadn't logged on in a while, they emailed me a secret code, which I entered, and so they gave me a list of suggested people to follow, and the first one on the list was Caitlyn Jenner.It can inspire you to copy others' work. But there are some great photos posted, if you know who or what to follow, that can serve as inspiration. On the other hand, a lot of what is posted is the usual selfies and food.

I would pass on Caitlyn Jenner too for what that's worth.No, that is not the end of the story, and I did not delete the app in disgust. I just passed on the opportunity to check out what Caitlyn Jenner had for lunch yesterday. I noticed that there is search bar, so I am going to try to work up a list of living photographers whose work I admire, and search for them. Most of the photographers I know about are dead, so it may take me a while.
There is a lot to be learned there.

However, the important thing to remember about Instagram and social media in general is that people are not simply promoting what they do, they are promoting themselves as personalities. So anything that adds character is appealing to them. In other words, Instagram isn't really about photography.
Being alive is not a prerequisite for having an Instagram accountMost of the photographers I know about are dead, so it may take me a while.
the internet seems to be stuffed to the gills with images from galleries and museums well knowns, wannabe well knows, movers and shakers and unknowns who post all their work unabashedly on social media platforms. to me finding someone interesting to look at on IG is like browsing through the photo bin at a junque store and finding something that catches my eye. sometimes you find a photo album, sometimes you find 1 torn snapshot. im not a fan of socal mediah and personally I see most of it as darkness but it has its bright spots.The best way to find photographs that you like is to make them yourself.
Yes. The list of interesting and inspiring artists, writers, musicians, etc to follow on Instagram is so long that it is daunting to whittle it down to the best, and right sized, feed for you. We hear so many times, like in this thread, that Instagram is filled with vapid pictures of other people's breakfasts and selfies. I literally never see images like that, and if I did I would know that the problem is me, rather than Instagram, which is designed to show me the content that I asked for.Being alive is not a prerequisite for having an Instagram accountThere are many dead photographers whose estates maintain an account and share the artist's work, news about books and exhibitions etc.

How many of you post to IG? How often? And if you are on a mobile device IG serves up a ton of annoying ads.
Yeah, ads, they exist. Kinda like on literally every click here on Photrio, which is totally fine with me if it keeps the lights on. I read somewhere that ad blocking can reduce revenue for the sites you visit, so I don't use them here. I don't know if that's true but I don't want to reduce Sean's revenue.Instagram serves up a lot of crap along with some good stuff, even if you try to ignore the obvious junk. Most photographers I see on IG are promoting a book or a show or a workshop--they're there to drum up business. Sites like Lenscratch or even Lensculture or 500px can be better and you won't end up with tiny, compressed images of someone's breakfast or vacation photos. How many of you post to IG? How often?

Tell me again, what is Caitlyn Jenner?
Angelyne beat her?She came in last place with 1.1% of the vote
I don't know who Angelyne is or how many votes she got. I just assumed that anyone who got 1.1% of the votes came in last. Maybe Angelyle got fewer votes and holds the title of California's biggest loser. Anyway, Instagram didn't suggest I follow her, so her lunches must not be all that exciting.Angelyne beat her?
I thought is was interesting, exciting and encouraging to read that so much of the demand for film is driven by people under the age of 30!
