The most beautiful photographs on Instagram are often not from the phone because a phone’s sensors are just not good enough like the DSLR or other pro cameras that maybe the celebrities use, National Geographic use, etc. Now often those photos that are clicked by DSLR or pro cameras need to be edited on PC and then you can post them on Facebook or Twitter or maybe Pinterest as well. But you need to then transfer them to your phone to be able to upload on Instagram because you can open instagram.com on PC but you cannot upload a photo via PC to Instagram. It does not give you that particular option. The official desktop version of Instagram also doesn’t allow users to use Direct Message features on it. In this particular article, we are going to tell you how to upload and post photos and videos directly from the PC or laptop or Mac directly.
