In a recent Washington Post In Sight blog post, Nicole Crowder highlights some of the photos captured from all over the world as part of the Everyday Everywhere project, resulting from a "collaboration among Peter DiCampo, Austin Merrill, and Grant Slater who initially had the idea. The first seeds for the project were planted in 2012 with the hashtag #everydayafrica, garnering more than 100,000 followers. Photographers around the world quickly began tagging their own work based on the countries or cities they were in."

In 2014, 11 different Everyday Instagram accounts merged to form The Everyday Projects, chronicling perspectives on life from all over the world onto one channel. The group's mission statement says how "The idea is to inspire and teach others to tell the stories of the world around them... Everyday images tell stories. Look outside yourself. Or look inside yourself and inside those around you. What makes everyday where you are?"

To participate, include the tag #everythingeverywhere in your images loaded into Instagram.
