│   └── May
│       ├── DSC_0056.JPG
│       ├── DSC_0070.JPG
│       └── DSC_0098.JPG
├── DSC_0056.JPG
├── DSC_0070.JPG
├── DSC_0098.JPG

1. sort-images does not delete any files (you have to do that yourself)
2. It also does not overwrite anything, so if you ran this command again, sort-images would only spit out an error
3. Also, running the command again would only find the files in the . directory, not in the 18 directory
4. The first . in the command specifies the source and the second . the destination
5. Further syntax will be shown on sort-images -h
