Just wondering what images people enjoy each month. Do you want military one month and then civil or would you prefer to have one of each for each month.

Only reason I ask this is I am going to be out travelling and shooting a lot over the next few months so depending on what people enjoy I might shoot some specific images for John and Blender to have a look at for monthly calendars.

Cheers

Ned

Before I got the superb Apache shots, I had prepared another August page using a "historic" shot from my old collection. Down the track, would photos from some years ago appeal as an alternative calendar, or would the majority here rather have modern helicopters only?

Hi John,
thanks for the calender, it will be another one to remember no doubt. I seem to be having a little trouble with the picture quality, it is all out of focus. Is there anything I can do to sharpen it up??
Regards
Micky.

Micky,

I take it that you are following the thumbnail link to the full size image, not trying to use the thumb as a calendar?

I agree with zhishengji751.

Leave it to the calendar producers to choose the subject.

We've had a good variety since the calendars started - and haven't had a bad one yet.

I'm glad to see they have remembered to put 'Ambulance' in mirrorred writing on the nose of that STARS helo so that when it comes up close to your rear view mirror you know to get out of its way!!

Ned, thanks for the compliment.

Don't know why, but it never came out as large as I intended. Story of my life.
