Just for the halibut, post your other calendar entries here. (dial-up warning)
I've been too busy to post or even read much on DU in the last few weeks, never mind getting time to take new photos. Most of us saw everything everyone submitted, but let's put them all in one place for those who haven't. Let's see yours! And please take the opportunity to join me in thanking blueraven95 for all the time and effort it took to produce another beautiful calendar.

1. Sorry. What I meant to write was: please don't share your calendar
entries with everyone else. After all, why would anyone in the Photography Group want to look at photographs?

2. I didn't submit any calendar photos

but I'd like to see what everyone else submitted. I hope others post theirs too.
I'll have a closer look later - big exam early tomorrow.

3. well, JeffR, since everyone else seems chicken...
and I can't post any pics (due to disqualifying myself from entering since I was running the contest), let me say at least say that I loved your submissions. While I personally think that the correct photograph won, I would have liked just about any of them in the calendar. I particularly liked "Free Parking" and "Southbound, Osgoode Station" and I loved "World Against War, 2008".

:hi:

12. okay, I take it back, now that there are more pictures on here
on second reading, I sounded harsher than I meant to anyway. You aren't a bunch of chickens, but the finest cats.

:rofl:

14. Can I add Framed to your list?
My favourites are the same as yours, but I especially like Framed and the way it always draws the eye back to the person in the "frame".



Great job with the calendar, btw. :toast:

4. I join you in your thanks to Blue Raven,
who took on this monumental task, and here are my rejects. I can't remember what I titled them, sorry.

7. Now that's what I'm talkin' about!
You should have a calendar all to yourself.

15. Wow
I know I keep saying this, but it is sooooo pretty up there. And those mountains are huge! I mean, we have big mountains here, but those are HUGE!


Also, the second photo reminds me of Scotland. I love the symmetry of the reflections.

It looks really cool.

18. Yes, it is natural
it's in Sweden on the island Gotland and they call it Raukar. They have a lot of those.

21. I love the pelicans, Merh,
and that sunset/rise is gorgeous. I also really like the next to the last one, the black-headed gulls. We have some up here that look like that in the spring, but after they mate they turn white all over...Bonaparte's gulls, I believe they are. I'm not sure if yours are the same.

22. The sunrise is one of my favorites
and those are laughing gulls - the line up photo of all the gulls has a bonaparte gull - he seems out of place and is a tad bigger than the others.

I'm having fun discovering my digital camera.

thank you for the kind words and encouragement

20. I come and I look and then come back and look some more
the variety of subject matters/environs/interpretations show how though we're so much the same we're also so different.
I am thrilled to have found the photography forum, and love hanging out here.
I sometimes just come back to study the picture "Framed".
Inspired !
