I always resist new social media at first. I don't want to learn how to use it or I am afraid I will let it suck up my time. My last hold outs were Instagram and Pinterest and I finally caved on both in the last few months. Instagram I am really growing to love because it has made me realize how incredible these little cameras on our iPhones are. As I scroll through my feed each day I'm amazed by the beauty that the people I follow find in the everyday world. I'm still getting rolling with Pinterest so my boards are a bit sparse but you can find me there under Dana Landon.
These are some things that I have posted since I signed up with Instagram. You can find me @itsmydarlin. I post about food, travels and animals that I think are adorable. Sometimes I will also post screen shots from the back of my big girl camera when I am out taking shots for the blog. Sneak peaks :) Is there anyone on Instagram that I need to start following? I've been given a few great suggestions recently but keep them coming.
