Since 2011, photographer Murad Osmann has been shooting a hugely popular series of photos titled "Follow Me" showing his significant other leading him through scenic locations around the world, from his point of view.

Russian photographer Murad Osmann has been attracting quite a bit of attention this past week on the Internet for his images. No, it's not his professional photos of people and places, but rather a clever project he has been putting together on his Instagram account.
