    The Epic Sunset


    Instagrammers are deep. They are not just "Yolo" shouting yahoos snapping pictures with their camera phones. They are legitimate photographic artists. And every now and then a photographic artist needs to sit back, look out into the sunset, and reflect on life. Think about heavy stuff. You know, like "why are we all here?", "whats does it all mean", and "how quickly can I get this on Instagram?"

     

    The Epic Sunset pic comes in at number NINE on our list of Epic Instagram photos, because, you know man, life and stuff. Yolo.

    The %22Look What I'm Eating!%22 Shot


    Artists are characterized by the way they see the world and Instagrammers are no different. While you or I might see a plate of food as simply an opportunity for nourishment, Instagrammers see a blank canvas of opportunity.

     

    The "Look What I'm Eating" shot is an epically beautiful expression of Instagram emotion. That's not just fro-yo. That's art. I feel you bro. Respect.

    The Epic Between The Legs Beach Shot


    The life of an on-the-go Instagram artist can be stressful. Snapping epic Instagram shots on the reg can wear you down. To take a break from the Insta-grind, Instagramers love striping down to their swim wear and heading waterside. The only problem with relaxing waterside is that it can be difficult to relax waterside without knowing that other people also know that you're relaxing waterside, because if other people don't know...whats the point of doing it?

     

    Enter the Epic Between The Legs Beach Shot.

     

    The Epic Between The Legs Beach Shot is an Insta-classic. It shows everyone back home your view from paradise while subtly reminding them that you're there and they are not. Sucks to be you. #sorrynotsorry #yolo

    Instagrammers are free spirits that refuse to conform to the oppressive rules of society. Sometimes that means not wearing shoes in public; sometimes that means boozing on a Tuesday. That's just how they live their lives. All in every damn day. Yolo.

     

    The Artistic Booze Shot lets everyone know you came to party, but you're still deep.

    The Squished Face Friends Shot


    Living the life of an epic Instagram artist can make you a popular person. It just comes with the territory. In fact, Instagrammers often have so many friends that they have trouble fitting them all in frame. Perennial problem solvers, Instagrammers have learned that the easiest solution to their picture problem is to simply squeeze their friends' faces together until no daylight can be seen between them.

     

    Like dead fish in a bucket, the Squished Face Friends Shot is executed to perfection when everyone pictured has their heads tilted and cheeks contorted.

    The Epic Insta-Glam Shot


    The self-portrait is a staple of artistic expression. Consummate innovators, Instagrammers have perfected their own version of the classic self-portrait. The Epic Insta-Glam shot.

     

    Usually set in cars or dimly lit rooms, the Epic Insta-Glam shot is a unique expression of attitude and eyebrow dexterity. The perfect Epic Insta-Glam photo combines beauty, pain, weird lighting, inner-struggle, and is set against an ambiguously unidentifiable background. What is that back there? You don't know. That's art, son. Yolo.

    Dogs and Babies
