I joined this photography party in March of 2024, stuck with it throughout the year, and it was non-stop fun. And learning. And inspiration. How could I pass up another round?

Given the ever-shifting norms of online platforms like this one — the logistical and technical challenges, and bad actors that behind-the-scenes-folks are constantly dealing with — I am grateful to Rodrigo S-C and the entire crew at Full Frame for their continued willingness to put so much FREE time, energy, and love into this publication, this project, and by extension, those of us who have come to see it as a favored place to read and write about photography. Thanks, y’all!

2025, here we go!
