Before the different social media platforms, there was no such place where people can share their artwork. People had no place to show their photography skills to the world. Now, social media has become so common in the life of people. People can chat, talk, and see each other while staying at home. They can share their art and photography skills with the rest of the world.
Different social media platforms have different features. If we talk about the best social media for sharing your valuable photographs and videos, then ‘Instagram’ is on top of the list. On Instagram, you can share your images and videos as a post, or you can also share them on your story.
On Instagram, you can find many famous film actors and actresses, photographers, fashion artists, politicians, designers, etc. sharing their latest images through their posts or stories. Also, many influencers are advertising different brands on ‘Instagram’.
If you are sharing your images on the story, then you can share them as individuals or you can share them by creating a collage. You can either select one image at a time and share it on your story, or you can select multiple images at once, it is totally up to you.
