365 Year In Review

As we close out 2018, I’m finishing up my 4^th year at the 365project web site.  The concept is to post 1 photo per day over the course of a year.  And while I pushed hard for that goal for the first 2 years, I’ve been a lot more relaxed over the past 2 years.  Mainly, I’ve tried to lean towards quality rather than quantity.   It is a nice community, and a convenient place to publish my images

.

For 2018, I posted 221 images to my main album, barely managing 60% of the days.  Adding in my additional albums raised me to 342 total pictures posted.

How about the “quality” standpoint?  Well, 75 of those images received their “Popular” designation.  That’s almost 22% of images posted, I believe that’s significantly improved over previous years.  And 13 images received the more selective “Trending” tag!  I don’t think I have more than a couple of those over the past few years.  Maybe the site has relaxed the (unpublished) criteria; but I’d rather believe I’ve had a good year!

Also, 5 of my all time most popular images are from this year, which is twice what one would expect from a randomly distributed sample.

So, here’s my “all time” top 10, hopefully to whet your appetite for my pending “Good Crop” post…
