Any chance of breaking the contestants down into categories before the final vote? I know it would be more work for those running the contest. It's just a minor quibble, but last year I think we ended up with three separate pictures of a Corgi in a field of flowers in the calendar, and not a single winter scene.
Don't get me wrong, all the pics of Corgis in flower fields were very good pictures, and the owners/photographers did a great job. A winter picture would be nice, though. -

We'll see :) We've added photo tip no.2 for that reason.
On a side note: John's snowy winter photos have made it two years in a row! Someone need to give Gwynni and Al some competition :)
We had an overwhelming number floral and studio backdrop photos submitted last year, a lot of them did not make it to the finals because:
1. Too many photos with the same theme
2. Same glamor shots studio pose
3. Resolution too low, not qualified for commercial printing -

Photo tip 2 is exactly what's printed above: Have a month / season / theme in mind
Strategically submit a photo with the maximum opportunity to be published.
Since you already submitted, submission rule #1 prevents you from submitting a second one :( Sorry. -
