NAILING YOUR INSTA PHOTOGRAPHY PAGE AESTHETIC!
April 2021
|Asian Photography
Instagram has made it easier than ever for photographers to showcase the best of their work and gain attention from people across the globe in the shortest span. Launched as a photo-sharing app back in October 2010, Instagram today boasts of more than 1 billion monthly users; making it one of the top six social networking sites in the world. And in a time when every other person with a camera posts pictures on the app and gets famous insta-ntaneously, it begs the question, how do you captivate people’s attention and keep them scrolling through your page for a quarter of the 28 minutes average time Instagram users spend on the app?
About The #GRAM
Like every other app that has made it to the top of people’s most-used app list, Instagram too has seen a lot of user-centric evolution since its launch. New features have not only managed to keep users around, but also increase the number of daily users from 100 million in 2016 to 500 million in 2021 – a whopping 50% surge!
The best part about Instagram, especially for photographers, is that it’s a totally visual application. Unlike Facebook which relies on both pictures and text, Instagram lays value on pictures primarily. So as a visual artist, Instagram is one of the top apps every photographer should use to showcase their work.
Your Instagram page effectively acts as your portfolio. If you want to acquire followers and keep them hooked, then it’s pretty obvious that you have to nail the art of creating an aesthetically amazing Insta feed.
But how would you do that?
Get #INSPIRED
Inspiration is the key to get your creative juices flowing. To curate an incredible Instagram page aesthetic, you need to do some detective work before you begin. Simply put, you need to make a note of some of the most famous Instagram celebrities and scroll through their page. These celebrities could be anyone, from your favourite photographer to the award-winning travel influencer or maybe even a business brand page.

MINIATURE MARVELS
Drawn to the hidden dramas of the insect world, Sandip Guha uncovers nature's quietest stories through patience, precision, and reverence. Since picking up a macro lens, he has captured moments as fleeting as damselfly mating rituals and as rare as spider courtship. His work goes beyond beauty, documenting behaviour, ecology, and the fragile poetry of life in miniature. Asian Photography spoke to him about inspiration, hardships, mistakes, bucket shot and more.

How Close Should You Get to a Subject? Ethics in Macro
Macro photography is all about getting close — closer than the eye can see. It invites us into intimate worlds: The spiralled symmetry of a snail's shell, the fine hairs on a bee's leg, the dew resting on a spider's web. But as we close in, a question looms that goes beyond technique or gear: How close should we get?

OnePlus Nord 5 Camera Review - New Midrange King?
Last year, when we reviewed the OnePlus Nord 4, it left us wanting more. This year, the Nord 5 arrives with bold promises - it's the first Nord to feature a Snapdragon 8-series chipset and the first mainstream OnePlus device with a 144Hz OLED display. But what we're really here for is the camera - especially since it borrows tech from the flagship OnePlus 13. While pricing hasn't been officially confirmed (we received both the Nord 5 and CE5 under embargo), we expect it to stay close to last year's launch price - between ₹30,000-₹35,000. According to OnePlus, this is their most complete Nord yet. So, do the cameras live up to that claim? Let's find out!

DECAY DIARIES: DISCOVERING THE BEAUTY OF ROT, RUST, AND RUIN THROUGH MACRO
Decay is usually seen as a sign of failure, of neglect, corrosion, and abandonment. It marks the places we leave behind and the things we no longer touch. But for those who carry a macro lens, decay is not the end of something, but the beginning of a fascinating visual story. Up close, rot becomes a rich texture, rust becomes a complex pattern, and ruin becomes poetry. Welcome to the world of Decay Diaries, where beauty isn’t found in perfection, but in what is slowly falling apart.

Apple's iOS 26 Brings Changes to Imaging Experience, Camera APP and Photos
Apple's new design overhaul brings an update to the Camera app in iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS Tahoe 26, making everyday photography feel more immersive and intuitive. The redesigned UI prioritizes easy reach for core controls while minimizing distractions. Buttons, sliders, and toggles now live within a refined control layer that adapts as you frame shots or switch modes. In the app, navigation and tools morph fluidly to stay out of the way until you need them, keeping the focus squarely on capturing the moment. New gestures streamline access to pro tools, and the layout now curves with the edges of modern displays for a more cohesive, hardware-conscious experience.

WHERE DOES MACRO END AND MICRO BEGIN?
Macro photography opens the door to a world we rarely notice-a place where the texture of a leaf becomes a jungle, the surface of a coin a lunar landscape. But how close is too close? At what point does macro stop being macro and enter the realm of micro photography? The line between the two isn't just a matter of semantics. It's about tools, technique, and intent. In this article, we'll draw that line.
