The Instagram of the Day is one of Billy Penn’s most talked about features.
Every day, the staff and editors select a post to top our newsletter and be presented on our site in various ways. We look for images that capture what life is like in Philadelphia, from overlooked details to iconic views to funny scenes. Mostly, we’re looking for photos that are interesting, exciting or surprising, as opposed to beautiful or picturesque.
You can submit potential pics to be included by using the hashtag #BillyPennGram.
Each Friday, we’ll present the previous seven days’ worth of Instagrams so you can vote for your favorite. Winners will be featured on our Insta account and be entered in a seasonal contest with prizes.
The poll will be open through midnight on Sunday.
To vote, you’ll need to enter your email address, which will never be sold or used nefariously — it’s just a way to keep track and avoid ballot stuffing. You’re allowed one vote per day.
Scroll down to vote for the Instagram of the Week for May 12 to May 18, 2018.
