We are not talking about the average instagram “celebrity” – whose usual posts are selfies with sponsored wares ranging from apparels to plastic noses.

advance – Turning his or her instagram profile into a impressive gallery. Instagram has changed how street instagrammers relate and compare their work with their peers; the comparison in validation comes naturally and competition is inevitable. To achieve relative success, street instagrammers possess different strengths – most have photographic prowess, others an eye for curation. Some have gone to crazy lengths to give a
perspective few have seen – Restricted rooftops, scaling massive cables to get atop bridge towers, wandering through ghettos etc. With the world as a stage, how one chooses to best represent their city or perspective, is left to the vastness of imagination. Regardless of what street instagrammers do to up the ante of their work, we can but appreciate the charming grittiness of street photography at the tip of our fingertips.
THE SIGNATURE SERIES HyperGrand’s latest 7mm slim watch is designed to stand out loud - Without shouting. The 40mm watch comes with meticulous detail, including raised 5 minute markers, excalibur hands and a small second at the 6 hour position. The series is available in HyperGrand’s new Straight Jacquard NATO strap collection, and interchangeable Classic Italian leather straps.
