As my friendly competition with Jonathan Desrosiers and Jeff Golenski in contributing photos to the WordPress Photo Directory in 2024 came to a wrap, I’ll note that I didn’t manage to get a recap post out monthly and my photo submissions definitely ebbed and flowed but overall I’m pleased to see a grand total of 136 photos contributed !
Following on from my August & September post , let’s take a look at my October, November, and December contributions to the Photo Directory . Before October, I had 113 photos accepted and as the month of September wrapped up that number has increased by 23 to 136 photos in the directory .
Want to join in the fun, then submit your photos !
