Erin Babnik (@erinbabnik): Erin’s feed includes breathtaking shots of valleys and snow-covered mountains. Her feed is guaranteed to bring out the love of camping within you and if you’re like me and not really a big camper, you can just enjoy the view through her photos, :)

Patricia Davidson (@pdavidsonphoto): From wildflower fields to rivers and streams, Patricia’s photos are sure to warm your heart. The stunning sunset shots will make you want to go outside and take photos of the sky with your phone. But don’t forget to wear a mask if you do!

These are just some of the photographers I follow and wanted to tell the world about because their photos have brought me joy on gloomy days. Maybe these feeds will lead to you finding other photographers you like, and if not, you can still enjoy the view from their perspective. These are only some of the Instagram photography accounts I follow (I follow a LOT), in no particular order and not sponsored at all. I like imagining I’m there and hope to one day be able to visit some of these places but until then, I will be here seeing them from the safety of my home.
