This is my first ever 'Instagram collage' for the blog. To be honest I've been very resistant about sharing my Instagram photos here because I personally like using DSLR photos and leaving the iphone photos for my Facebook Page and Twitter. And I've been on Instagram for almost a year now before the 'hype' happened.  Yet I realised I couldn't carry my heavy DSLR around no matter how strong I think my shoulders are so I have captured special moments using the iphone more often than I have thought. 

Like for example, my fisheye photo from Katoomba (photo no. 3). It was extra windy that day and I would've put my life at risk if I had attempted a 'selfie' photo using a chunky DSLR. I would've have, definitely been blown away or my arms would've snapped under the heavy weight. Like I've mentioned plenty of times, I am a clumsy, clumsy girl. So DSLR + selfie + windy day on the high peak of mountain = natural disaster.
