The goal this weekend is to make photos and videos inspired by what you enjoy doing in your spare time.
Here’s how to get started:
- Whether it’s a full day or a few minutes in the middle of a hectic schedule, share the creative or crafty hobby or activity you look forward to when you have time to yourself.
- If your free time = social time, show your circle of family and friends and how you value their company.
- Focus on capturing the mood of your unstructured breaks: Are you seeking a quiet space to recharge, a thrilling adventure or something in between?
PROJECT RULES: Please add the #WHPfreetime hashtag only to photos and videos taken over this weekend and only submit your own visuals to the project. If you include music in your video submissions, please only use music to which you own the rights. Any tagged photo or video taken over the weekend is eligible to be featured next week.

Weekend Hashtag Project: #WHPseeingdouble
The goal this weekend is to make photos celebrating pairs that mirror one another — in obvious or subtle ways.
Here’s how to get started:
- Keep an eye out for lookalike couples, and think outside the box. Seek out people that match their surroundings, a dog and owner with a similar expression or best friends dressing alike on purpose.
- While a couple’s similarities may initially catch your eye, also highlight how each is unique.
- Compose your frame in a way that allows you to compare your two subjects. Eliminate distracting details that would take away from the emphasis on your dynamic duo.
PROJECT RULES: Please add the #WHPseeingdouble hashtag only to photos and videos taken over this weekend and only submit your own visuals to the project. If you include music in your video submissions, please only use music to which you own the rights. Any tagged photo or video taken over the weekend is eligible to be featured next week.

Love is in the air. In honor of Valentine’s Day, celebrated around the world on February 14, the goal this weekend is to create photos and videos showing how love inspires you, as in this featured photo from @shibainu.berry.
- Come together to connect with loved ones. (Humans and furry friends alike!) If you can’t be with them IRL, find a creative way to include them with a printed photo, drawing or meaningful memento.
- Do you show your love with gifts? We want to see the handmade crafts and heart-shaped treats you share this time of year.
- Capture what you love to do. Whether you’re hosting a dinner party, going for a bike ride or starting an impromptu dance party, celebrate the big and small moments with friends, both new and old.

Weekend Hashtag Project is a series featuring designated themes and hashtags chosen by Instagram’s Community Team. For a chance to be featured on the Instagram blog, follow @instagram and look for a post every week announcing the latest project.
This weekend, the goal is to take photos and videos that create optical illusions, like this hand-created eye trick from Aakash Nihalani (@aakashnihalani). Here are some tips:
- Play with scale and move around to find new perspectives within a single frame. For example, photographing a puddle low to the ground can turn it into an ocean.
- Let props help. A cleverly placed mirror or some sleight-of-hand card tricks can elevate a simple illusion to double take-worthy.
- Make magic by playing with both artificial and natural light. Use a flashlight to draw the eye toward a specific element of an image or incorporate the setting sun’s long shadows into your illusion.
PROJECT RULES: Please add the #WHPillusion hashtag only to photos and videos taken over this weekend and only submit your own visuals to the project. If you include music in your video submissions, please only use music to which you own the rights. Any tagged photo or video taken over the weekend is eligible to be featured next week.

Celebrate the uniqueness and style of unicorns for this Weekend Hashtag Project: #WHP
- Capture your real-life unicorns, the individuals that really stand out. With an action-packed #Boomerang or playful portrait of a friend (humans and animals both work), show us their true personality.
- Look for light and colors that pop. An everyday place can transform into a magical location with the addition of a single light beam spilling into a dark room or an orange boat that jumps out against a blue sea.
- Focus on the little things. Get close to capture special details of a new hair style or handcrafted origami. Include the written details in your caption, too.
PROJECT RULES: Please add the #WHP hashtag only to photos and videos taken over this weekend and only submit your own visuals to the project. If you include music in your video submissions, please only use music to which you own the rights. Any tagged photo or video taken over the weekend is eligible to be featured next week.

Get outside and explore for our Weekend Hashtag Project: #WHPlandscape.
- Inject energy into an otherwise quiet moment. Capture a friend leaping in the air, or get low to include a patch of flowers in the foreground.
- Add mood naturally. Time your outing during the golden hour (sunrise or sunset). Bad weather can make for great photos and videos, too. Dramatic clouds transform the sky on a windy day; colors pop after a rainstorm.
- Focus on the details. Capture an intimate view from your windowsill or even a hand-drawn scene. Imagine what it would be like to see the scene from an ant’s perspective.

Ever looked up to realize you’re coincidentally wearing the same outfit as your BFF or co-worker? This weekend, the goal is to capture moments of shared likeness that make you smile.
- Create your own. This assignment is not just for people who look alike. Show us a close-up of matching nail art or the details of a collaborative art project.
- Observe the natural world. Plants and insects are incredible mimics. Photographing them in their surroundings can bring an added layer of surprise.
- Be open. Twinning isn’t all about obvious sets; objects and architecture can resemble people and animals. For example, your neighbor’s bush may perfectly mirror your poodle’s haircut.
- Make sure you’re ready. Moments of twinning may be fleeting. As they say, pics or it didn’t happen! .
PROJECT RULES: Please add the #WHPtwinning hashtag only to photos and videos taken over this weekend and only submit your own visuals to the project.

Inspired by the Winter Olympics, this weekend’s goal is to create photos and videos celebrating the power of movement, as in this featured photo by Thai Haong (@loewe7).
- You don’t have to be an athlete to capture the everyday action around you, like a spontaneous trampoline session or a daily run through the park. Keep an eye out for repeating shapes or colorful backdrops to elevate your images.
- Play with different viewpoints to maximize energy. Make us feel the drama with intense expressions and extreme angles, like an unexpected selfie during an exhilarating cheerleading practice.
- Use creative tools like slow-motion or time-lapse to add another layer of depth to your submission. Capture the blur from a crashing wave while surfing or a freeze frame of a mid-air jump in order to transport us into the action.
PROJECT RULES: Please add the #WHPmoveit hashtag only to photos and videos taken over this weekend and only submit your own visuals to the project.

Sunsets and good conversations
The guys in the foreground are two of many visitors who flock to the famous Seven Mile Beach every evening to witness the often bragged about sunsets. The ship, that has pretty much become one of Cayman’s cultural symbols, is the Jolly Roger and is also packed with visitors soaking in the beauty of this paradise. I’d envy them, but I too am a traveler, taking this all in.
