It is always nice to see a recap of your actions as the end of the year comes.
We cannot have all the data, but thankfully the platforms we use usually create cute things to show us how far we have gone!
This is a message I got from Pexels, a photo-sharing platform, where I have uploaded several of my photo-material.
They sayed they have my year of focus ready, so I went in to see it!
But before diving in, let me share some info about this.
It's been a long time I have been uploading material in this platform.
The reasons? Many actually.
It has helped me a lot for downloading images that I can use for clients or other graphics, so I thought I would also contribute the way I could.
I have also received some small donations throughout the years..
Some of my milestones I have shared with you here

Right now, I am at 55 M views and I hope to reach the 100m views in 2026!
So, without further ado, let's see what my 2025 year was all about (in Pexels)
Some of my images got featured, so I got some extra views
Getting a 7.3 million views in the year is not bad, I am actually very happy with it!
One download every 11 minutes, I am really thankful that my photos are useful to other content creators and I hope that sometimes I get to see more about how it is being used!
Apparently May was a rather successful month, I am not sure why .. but maybe because it was spring, I uploaded more colorful images?
This number really surprised me a lot.
170 countries!!! My content was downloaded by people in 170 different countries!
I have only been to 4 different countries, so this is really big for me!
Thanks to everyone!
And the last one..
I did not win any challenge, but I did participate to a few of them.
I liked the title 'the challenger' and more that .. winners are just challengers who entered enough times.
Its nice to be encouraged and I am so looking forward for the 2025 recap on Hive that we see once a year by Hive Creators.. what about you?
ps Tomorrow I will post on X about a new giveaway, so stay tuned :)
Thanks so much for your support!
