Here are 4 Chicago-based Instagrammers who took over our feed–and you can too

Meet Michelle Kanaar, Justin Frederick, Kevin Serna and Mike Killion—4 Chicago Instagrammers. We handed them the keys to our @redeyechicago account and each provided a unique perspective on the city we call home. You can check out some highlights from their takeovers below.

Are you a photographer? Illustrator? Chicago lover with an iPhone? Want to take over the RedEye Instagram account? We probably want you to, so don’t be shy. Send our photo editor, Lenny Gilmore, an email ([email protected]) with a link to your portfolio, and we’ll get back to you if we’re interested.

Janine Garrison has been working this route for 11 years. She loves the customers and she feels safe, but she says, "the one thing about this neighborhood is there's a lot of drugs. It even comes in the mail." ¿¿¿¿ @mikanaar #chicago #southside #california

The 70mm film festival, an around the clock horror film marathon, and rich architecture transporting it's viewers to another age – the @musicboxchicago is easily one of my favorite, and the most unique, theaters in the city. Illustrated by @ferdgram #musicbox

The Wrigley building has always fascinated me. Aesthetically, it's unlike any other building in the city, yet it draws a close parallel to its Art Deco counterparts. As a child who grew up on Batman, The Animated Series, and had an imagination that would run wild, I would always picture it as the headquarters for Wayne Enterprises. Fun fact – it was the first office building in Chicago with air conditioning. Illustration by – @ferdgram #wrigley #chicago #redeye #illustration

@killertown

If there's one thing I love about the people of Chicago, it's their ability to make the most of our weather. Already channeling summer vibes, Susan Schmidt takes advantage of the warm temps for a few games of volleyball with her friends. ¿¿¿¿ @killertown

Started my day out at Wilson Skatepark. 6 knee surgeries won't stop Dan Morgan, 46, from getting out to skate when it's 46 degrees in January. ¿¿¿¿ @killertown
