For those who haven’t heard of it, Instagram is a quite nifty camera app for your iPhone, that’s building in popularity. It’s got two noteworthy features which goes some way to explaining it’s popularity, the first is filters. Instagram allows you apply a variety of different filters to your shots, which give your shots a unique and stylised feel. It’s second key feature is sharing. Instagram is fully social. You can follow your friends photos, liking and commenting on what they produce and you can also share directly to other social sites like facebook and twitter.
I’ve been using Instagram for just over three months and have thoroughly enjoyed it. So when it came time to coming over to Europe for a third time I was faced with a choice. Do I bring my bulky Canon 350 DSLR or do I stick with the iPhone 4 and Instagram? Obviously the iPhone 4 has it’s limitations as a Camera, but it was these limitations that I thought could bring out some creativity, especially with Instagram. So I left the Canon at home and have been taking a Instagram snaps all over Europe!
I’d like to share these snaps through the blog, so without further ado I’ll kick things off with my most recent trip. A weekend jaunt to Paris. Here is Paris by Instagram!

So that was my quick Instagram account of a weekend jaunt to Paris. I hope you enjoyed the view!
