CONTEST WINNERS: Snow PennPorn

Ben Lerner Friday, Jan. 24, 2014Fri, Jan 24, 2014

Six Instragram users had their work published in print in Thursday's DP, and now the next tier of snow day pic visionaries are getting cyber-famous. The runners-up used the hashtag #UTBSnowDay and were selected for truly capturing the beauty of campus (and beyond) during the 1.5 snow days this week. Now that our streets are slushy and GBMs/OCR/rush are back, we thank these photographers for snapping the fleeting wintry serenity that enveloped Penn during this semi-commitment-free blizzard. Mazel tov to the Instageniuses, now forever immortalized on the interwebs.

@siricookie might not be a fan of "Her," but her Quad insta does everything right:

@dani_castillo also had a gorgeous model in FFA, but her shot is particularly stunning:

@nolanburger's Instagram of the back of College Hall employed an edgy no-crop. Oh cold damn:

@saraallan used the same technique, but she ventured downtown to City Hall. Bonus points for off-campus, boo:

@jay_chan_a incorporated some bold moves with his framing (and his caption said he was en route to Beijing), but he made Platt and Stouffer look fab – seemingly impossible til now:

@juliaziyuepeng's Fisher Hassenfeld photo is so painting-like it's almost too good for a Penn brochure, no?

@acnwit captured the front of College Hall as a winter wonderland, complete with snowy blanketed B-Frank:

Congrats to all these Instalegends – give them a follow!
