The first image will fit Instagram’s feed/grid dimensions, and the second image will fit in Instagram stories. Feel free to save to your device and share across social media! If you cannot right click and save, clicking the image should take you to dropbox to download in full quality. You can even cross off the prompts as you go in your stories to track your progress.
