Hey again!

I'm in a RUSH. I'm always last minute on things....TODAY is the last day for the 20% off calendars at mycanvas. This is my first time working on mycanvas and I LOVE IT! The software is superb.

Anyway, I'm making 5 calendars *for grandparents, aunts etc.... so this will be a significant savings. I desperately need input on this series. It is of my 3 y/o in her new dress...What do you like? Which would you include? Are there any that are very striking? There are a lot that are similar, but I don't know which ones are the best of these. I also did a desaturated series as the red was pretty hard to shoot, but in the end I prefered the full color. CC is ALWAYS very much appreciated. THANK YOU GUYS! :lust :lust

    The ones that catch my eyes are #1,2,4,6,7,11, & 12 from this group. It would have been nice if you would have had one of her standing in front of a christmas tree or at least an ever green tree. Just my thoughts.

    #1 or #4

    Or use #4 as a central image, and use several others around it.

    Very cute!

    Thank you Gary, Ann and Diva for taking the time to reply!! You are all very sweet. :D I value your input very much....
    So, the calendar is now FINISHED, hooray! Spent 3 days on it...lotsa hours. Probabally no one in my family will appreciate the bokeh shots or countless hours in pp...just me (and hopefully some of you). So, no one had any critique on these? What to do differently? Hmmm...how am I going to get any better?!

    The bokeh is strange to me in a few of these after inspection. Is it because of the linear shapes of the sticks and leaves? ie... many stick-like figures and less rounded objects? The bokeh reminds me of ice formations. This is my first fall season with this camera so I'm just very curious. Particularly shot 11 (7-11 mostly)/ THANKS for the input on your favs everybody!
