To me, travel photography is about really seeing a place – its essence, its quirks, unexpected juxtapositions, the telling detail or perspective, its cast of characters going about their lives. Often, we have to travel somewhere new before we even notice these things or think to capture them.
Here are 3 Instagram photographers, who – whether they’re home or away – catch those views, those moments, that others just let slip by. They inspire me to take better travel photos and to keep my eyes open, even in my home town.

P.S. Since we’re on the topic and maybe you’re wondering where the sidebar pics from my Instagram went, something went wrong with the plugin I was using for that, and it (briefly) shut down my site. So I got rid of it, and I’m a little hesitant to install another one.
Great post Stephanie! Thank you for the kind words & the feature! :)
