This very short article is more so just an announcement and reminder of Aperture's Instagram Silent Auction (which took place Monday, October 28). Ultimately, there is not much to critique about the blog post itself due to the nature of he post. The auction will be selling off nearly 100 pieces of photography, all from Instagram profiles. The money will be put towards an unspecified benefit.
As a whole the article is very straightforward and easy to follow. Included in the post is a small sampling of some pieces that will be available during the auction (including the one above). Image content ranges anywhere from still lifes to animals, documentary to collage, personal to conceptual. The concept in its entirety is intriguing for the very fact that these pieces are all from Instagram. I find that this really shows the prevalence of technology and social media in today's society.
