Hi all,<div><br></div><div>We have seen it coming for a while, but now it is official: Wiki Loves Monuments has been officially recognized by Guinness World Records as the Worlds Largest Photography Competition! With 168,208 submissions we squashed the previous record by roughly 50%. For 2012 we will likely squash our own record, but it will need some time to become official. </div>

<div><br></div><div>Thank you all for making this possible! It was a great journey and I am very glad that all your work gets some extra touch this way!</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div><br></div><div>Lodewijk</div>
