Here, we attempted to round up some of our favorite accounts we think are worth a follow. While our criteria isn't scientific, we focused our attention on feeds that are consistently creative and inspirational. Another guiding principle: aesthetic appeal (come on—it is Instagram, after all).
But the list doesn't stop here. We want to know what you think. Drop us a line about your favorite Dayton Instagram accounts—people or businesses—and why you love following them, and we may add them to the list.
