Jacqui Kenny바카라 게임 웹사이트s anxiety can sometimes get so bad, she바카라 게임 웹사이트s too afraid to leave her home. She suffers from agoraphobia, meaning she fears being unable to escape certain places or having panic attacks in places without an easy path home.

She told that she started taking the screenshots after her marketing and advertising company closed in 2015. She showed them to her sister, who told her she should keep it up. Now, Kenny collects her most picturesque screengrabs on her Instagram, Agoraphobic Traveller. Though she doesn바카라 게임 웹사이트t consider herself a photographer, her feed reflects her unique aesthetic, with scenes of sun-drenched deserts, beaches, and even snowy streets. There are very few people in her photos, which instead focus on homes, buildings, and trees in remote places around the world.

She says it can take anywhere from a few days to a week to find a good screenshot, especially because cars are usually blocking the view. Eventually, she hopes to make a website where users can check out her shots on Google Street View — and in Google바카라 게임 웹사이트s virtual reality software too.
