Episode 9: Instagram for Photographers

In this episode, we turn our attention to something that often takes too much of our attention: Instagram. It's an annoying time trap filled with hucksters, motivational imagery, and so, so many selfies; while also being one of the world's richest resources for experiencing all kinds of photography.
