Every day millions of people post images from their life, unadorned with words. It is, as our artist profile Mark Hedengren mentions in his video interview, a contemporary form of conversation. To join that conversation, we&#8217;ve launched our new Facebook-page feature 15Grams. Curated every Monday by local artist Liberty Blake, 15Grams features a single image from one of Utah&#8217;s finest Instagrammers, with an invitation to explore their work. For this month&#8217;s photo essay we feature examples from the five Instagrammers we have already featured, as well as some shots from Blake herself, who Instagrams under her Derby handle &#8220;England&#8217;s Glory.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-24307 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon
