Twelve Favorite Photos And Instagram’s Best Nine

Today I’m sharing another year-end wrap up (yes, I’m milking 2016 for all it’s worth), but this has to be one of my favorites because it’s all about photography (just a little hobby of mine). If you are an Instagram user, you probably have seen several collages running across your feed with the hashtag #2016bestnine. I immediately thought the concept was super cool, but the idea of calculating the number of visits to every Instagram photo sounded completely exhausting (and more than slightly insane). Luckily I discovered a simple website (this may be old news to most of you) that will calculate your top nine Instagram photos of 2016 and instantly create a collage that can be shared across social media. Here is the collage created for Small Talk Mama:

best nine

The concept is really fun, and super easy to produce, but there’s only one thing wrong with the product — many of my personal favorites don’t appear in the list and the latest photos posted are still receiving likes well into the new year.  So instead of settling for some simple statistically created collage, I’ve decided to take matters into my hands and share my top twelve personal favorite photos from the past year (in no certain order).  If you enjoy the show, you should follow Small Talk Mama on Instagram!
