It seems like anyone can take a halfway-decent smartphone pic if they just choose the right filter. But Instagram user Mario Maynor has mastered the art of all those X-Pro II, sunrise and Nashville special effects. With photos that largely depict downtown Sacramento—vertigo-inducing skyscrapers; an abstract, Hitchcock-esque shot of the Delta King; a dreamy Capitol Park at sunset—Maynor puts the city in a, dare we say it, world-class light. http://instagram.com/maynorchrome .
