It’s Official: Instagrammers Love Nevada

Travel Nevada sponsored the 2nd Annual Reno Instagrammys, a photo and video competition headquartered in the beautiful Truckee Meadows. The competition is entirely free to participate and all ages were encouraged to capture their unique perspective through the camera lens and their favorite Instagram filter.

Laning Andrews' photo of a ghost town in the Smoky Valley won the “Home Means Nevada” category. More than 500 photos were submitted to that category alone, showcasing many different perspectives of the Silver State.
