# Photo Directory Update: March & April - Link: https://jeffpaul.com/2024/05/photo-directory-update-march-april/ - Published: 2024-05-10T20:43:06-05:00 - Author: jeffpaul Following on from [February’s post](https://jeffpaul.com/2024/03/photo-directory-update-february/), I’m sharing progress on my contributions to the [WordPress Photo Directory](https://wordpress.org/photos/) over the past two months. Before March, I had 40 photos accepted and as April wrapped up that number has increased by 22 to [62 photos in the directory](https://wordpress.org/photos/author/jeffpaul/). Want to join in, then [submit your photos](https://wordpress.org/photos/submit/)! --- The following images of my March and April contributions have been synced to [Openverse](https://openverse.org/)( and thus easier to embed via the Image block’s “Select Image” flow to embed images from Openverse). ![Tree trunk with ice and stacked up lake deck segments surrounding it with a wooden sign screwed to it with a lobster with a circle cross through it and the text “Don’t be a lobster, use sun screen now & later !!!” (Camp Anokijig, Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin)]( https://i0.wp.com/jeffpaul.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/36365d90ea10823a9.73530301- 1152x2048-1-jpeg.webp?resize=1152%2C2048&ssl=1) [Tree trunk with ice and stacked up lake deck segments surrounding it with a wooden sign screwed to it with a lobster with a circle cross through it and the text “Don’t be a lobster, use sun screen now & later !!!” (Camp Anokijig, Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin)](https://wordpress.org/photos/photo/36365d90ea/) by [Jeffrey Paul](https://jeffpaul.com/) is licensed under [CC-CC0 1.0](https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/) ![Waterfront view of La Jolla Bay with sea lions basking on rocks in the foreground and a sea gull soaring center frame (Point La Jolla, La Jolla, San Diego, California)]( https://i0.wp.com/jeffpaul.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/69365e77cdc18ea45.74326960- 2048x1536-1-jpeg.webp?resize=2048%2C1536&ssl=1) [Waterfront view of La Jolla Bay with sea lions basking on rocks in the foreground and a sea gull soaring center frame (Point La Jolla, La Jolla, San Diego, California)](https://wordpress.org/photos/photo/69365e77cd/) by [Jeffrey Paul](https://jeffpaul.com/) is licensed under [CC-CC0 1.0](https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/) ![View of beachfront and cable with bouys anchored from shore and drifting out into low crashing waves (JW Marriott Cancun Resort & Spa, Cancún, Quintana Roo, Mexico)]( https://i0.wp.com/jeffpaul.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/25865dfb238c39037.92891658- 1536x2048-1-jpeg.webp?resize=1536%2C2048&ssl=1) [View of beachfront and cable with bouys anchored from shore and drifting out into low crashing waves (JW Marriott Cancun Resort & Spa, Cancún, Quintana Roo, Mexico)](https://wordpress.org/photos/photo/25865dfb23/) by [Jeffrey Paul](https://jeffpaul.com/) is licensed under [CC-CC0 1.0](https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/) ![A traditional vacant carousel with ornately decorated horses and a lit canopy with a sign indicating the entrance at the Please Touch Museum (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)]( https://i0.wp.com/jeffpaul.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/80465f2556b066e07.83901384- 2048x1536-1-jpeg.webp?resize=2048%2C1536&ssl=1) [A traditional vacant carousel with ornately decorated horses and a lit canopy with a sign indicating the entrance at the Please Touch Museum (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)](https://wordpress.org/photos/photo/80465f2556/) by [Jeffrey Paul](https://jeffpaul.com/) is licensed under [CC-CC0 1.0](https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/) ![#KeepItAwesome neon sign (Steamboat Springs, Colorado)](https://i0.wp.com/jeffpaul. com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/33365f2564669da34.56054974-2048x1536-1-jpg.webp?resize =2048%2C1536&ssl=1) [#KeepItAwesome neon sign (Steamboat Springs, Colorado)](https://wordpress.org/photos/photo/33365f2564/) by [Jeffrey Paul](https://jeffpaul.com/) is licensed under [CC-CC0 1.0](https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/) ![Kona Ice mobile snow cone truck showing various flavor dispensers](https://i0. wp.com/jeffpaul.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/86465fa4ba23e18b4.88459120-2048x1152- 1-jpeg.webp?resize=2048%2C1152&ssl=1) [Kona Ice mobile snow cone truck showing various flavor dispensers](https://wordpress.org/photos/photo/86465fa4ba/) by [Jeffrey Paul](https://jeffpaul.com/) is licensed under [CC-CC0 1.0](https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/) ![Driver’s side rear corner view of Scooby Doo!
