2013 in Review with Sincere Appreciation
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2013 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 56,000 times in 2013. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 21 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.
With Gratitude
It has been just about one year since I started this blog. It is a lot of fun and I have shared images from all over the world with you and received many comments. I am grateful that since inception the following milestones were reached:
- Published 375 images
- Currently have 1,006 followers
- Over 46,700 page views from people in 158 countries of the world
- Recorded more than 1,800 comments
- Have over 2,000 likes on posts
None of this would be possible without your support and encouragement. I am very thankful to all of you and hope that you will continue to enjoy my images and provide comments.
With deep gratitude,
Ravi
