Weekend Hashtag Project: #WHPfollowthelight

Weekend Hashtag Project is a series featuring designated themes and hashtags chosen by Instagram’s Community Team. For a chance to be featured on the Instagram blog, follow @instagram and look for a post every week announcing the latest project.

The goal this weekend is to make photos and videos inspired by the diverse qualities of light. Here’s how to get started:

Play around with different ways light can draw attention to a figure or action — such as a golden halo around a single person or multiple sources of light, adding depth to a scene.

Look for situations that are transformed by the position of the sun, like a tree-lined promenade that sings at sunset.

Don’t shy away from shooting at night, when beams of light can become subjects in their own right. For example: car headlights that illuminate falling snow.
