More than a billion in the world itself, a level exceeded by 2018. In short, here is a non-exhaustive and unpretentious selection of people to follow in the Alsatian capital!

The art of reflection

Who says Insta mainly says photo. This principle, @ estelchill has not forgotten. Almost every day, she sublimates Strasbourg thanks to her photos. Originality in its approach? This 41-year-old Lorraine, who arrived in the area in 2008, only uses her smartphone and… constantly plays on the reflections and therefore the water. Easy with a city where the Rhine and the Ill flow? Except that it also draws a lot of inspiration from puddles. Place Kléber, in Petite France but also all over Strasbourg. “I like the fact that it gives life and relief to photographs, and above all it becomes a kind of quest which suddenly boosts everyday life”, explains the person concerned, who prefers to remain anonymous. “It’s a great occupation for the situation we are in right now. You can spend a day without getting bored, ”adds @ estelchill, far from being the only one to take advantage of the city’s enormous photogenic potential. Like @ cedric_schell and @ tonyrammath, of the trade them.

Who has never photographed their dish? For @ lestreetfoodist, it’s a real “mania”. So Antoine Milesi of his real name transformed it into an account “finder of good addresses” for “a little more than 3 years”. There he published his very varied gourmet escapades. Where burgers rub shoulders with pizzas, pasta, sandwiches, but also ice creams, cold cuts, pastries, pastries, chocolates etc. “I decided to share my discoveries on a regular basis. It is always a pleasure to continue to do so now, to exchange with the community on these subjects and the passion is stronger than ever! », Explains the native of Strasbourg, 26, who claims a certain independence. Is it never sponsored by restaurants? “From time to time, some people offer me to taste their cuisine or a particular product for free, but I don’t have to do anything in return (but that’s still a very small part of what I show). Otherwise, it’s me who chooses and buys what I offer on my account, if I don’t like it I prefer not to show it, I mainly share my good addresses ”. Even now, with deliveries or click and collect.

Door to door with nothing to sell

It is an architectural detail that escapes many. Not to him or her, since this Instagramer prefers to stay “in the background to highlight only [son] work and [ses] Pictures “. As its name suggests, @ portesdestrasbourg is interested in doors. “She is the crossing point! Being from Strasbourg, while strolling here and there, I noticed the poems which emerge from it ”, enlightens the person concerned, who is interested in any type of access. Exterior, interior, porch, simple fire door or very elaborate art-deco entrance… “I analyze the light, the frame and depending on my emotion, I capture a detail or a whole to try to sublimate the coherence or its singularity! », Explains the artist, who also enjoys« exploring places forbidden to the general public to take pictures of rare and inaccessible doors! »Guaranteed discoveries.
