Prague is not far away and is a real gem in Central Europe when it comes to narrow old town streets, dreamy views of the Vltava and hearty food. Although the Czech capital attracts plenty of tourists, it is possible to capture the character of the city photographically, as a group of German Igers proved on their #classtriptoprague at the weekend.
#athomeintheworld is our motto in March, because our photographers are always on the move and at home in the world. This is also the case with @_hannesthun, whose stream has been full of colors, palm trees against a blue sky and people in summer clothes since the beginning of January - definitely not Germany. The Berliner is currently in Cape Town, where he will stay until the end of the month with his girlfriend @farinadeutschmann. He took us on a virtual tour of the city, showed us his favorite places and talked about must-dos.

He has always refused to call himself a photographer. But he is currently showing his masterful geometric compositions, the play of light and shadow and daring bird's eye views in an exhibition.

Even the Instagram pseudonym has a personal, somewhat macabre story - one of Saskia Bauermeister's first assistant jobs was to film a funeral. "I accidentally stood on a broken grave belonging to a Hedwig. The name has stuck in my mind over the last few years." - and so it came to be that one of the coziest and most authentic accounts on Instagram is called @oh_hedwig.

His stream thrives on the contrast between the multicultural metropolis of Berlin and his hometown of Neubrandenburg: @elfestivalito is cosmopolitan and at the same time attached to his hometown, and he has managed to get other Igers interested in his city with its real Eastern flair - the oversaturated Berliners like to come by for a photo walk - and he recharges his batteries in Berlin every now and then.
It was in summer 2011 that Michaela Kruse aka @lailie posted a car photography on her Instagram account for the very first time – a green Figaro by Nissan. This was the beginning of her own photo collection of beautiful old cars that she tagged with #lailiescars. What used to be a personal gallery for Michaela is now a well-known hashtag among Instagrammers. We had a chat with the photographer herself about cars, London and architecture.
