The SDN Communications internal calendar is filled with images taken by employees.

SDN Communications employs more than 100 people in a variety of departments. Their day jobs include sales, network engineering, accounting and tech support.

But some of them are pretty good photographers. Every year, SDN has an internal contest for photos taken over the previous 12 months.

Employees vote for their favorites, and the top five are printed and displayed on a wall in the SDN office for a year.

The 2023 winning entries featured a variety of locations, including Alaska, Chicago and South Dakota.
