Holy smokes 2019 has been a whirlwind in our hub Love for Somerset The hub has grown to a whopping 15.3k Somerset lovers and photographers! As Instagram starts sharing their Top 9 for the year, we thought it would be fun to see the most popular images and their locations in Somerset. See Love for Somerset’s top images of 2019, based on our most liked photos this year.
Since Love for Somerset began in 2015, over 73,000 images have been given the #loveforsomerset tag. With so many epic images to choose from, it can be a hard task for the team to pick!
SOMERSET MOMENTS CAPTURED ON OUR GRID
There are so many ‘moments’ captured on the grid. Moments of light..gone in an instant. Moments of perseverance. Of getting up early and standing in bogs (this really happened!) for that perfect sunrise shot. Moments of frustration, I’m sure, when painstakingly editing a photo takes hours, late into the night, and long after the capture took place.
Yep, creativity like this takes time. Excellence takes time. Hours upon hours of consistently honing your craft. In the moment of the shutter.
Excellence that shows itself through these images, through the eyes of the individual who took them. Each one on a journey of self discovery, and each on a journey of discovering an unseen moment of Somerset. A moment you graciously share with us.
To be honest all of the images we curate on the grid are top notch, the TOP 9 just happened to get a whopping amount of likes. Each deserves our admiration and respect. Check out our grid to see more Love for Somerset inspiration.
