Okay everyone, it’s that time of year again! I am opening the photo submissions a little earlier this year so as to be sure not to miss any promotions that seem to come in around mid-October.
if there is enough demand for a forum calendar 2024, I’m ready and happy to get going on creating with you and all your buds to make each month of 2024 a delight and with all the gorgeous buds on here, I’m certain we can have a colourful and special calendar yet again.
A reminder of the rules below.
Your pictures must ideally be:
1. Landscape
2. Not resized (so in original size when taken)
3. Of good quality (not fuzzy or blurry) unless you have a budgie in the background and a clear budgie in the foreground
4. Not dark - be aware of the background lighting. Buds in silhouette against the backdrop of a window won’t work.
Good example:
Clear ✓ Landscape ✓ Original Size ✓
Bad Example:
Clear X Landscape X Original Size X
4. Multiple budgies are welcome, including aviaries (but they still must be clear shots)
5. Only 1 photo per member will be chosen unless not enough members contribute to the 12 months and it will be put to a vote
6. You can enter up to 3 pictures but only 1 will be chosen (name(s) with each picture please)
7. Old or new photos welcome and past budgies are also accepted
8. Sorry but only long standing members can contribute
Closing date for entries is FRIDAY 20th OCTOBER 2023 (this is to allow for overseas postage)
Costs to other countries may be higher for postage.
I will of course confirm final details of how much they will be once I’ve started the design.
I’ll be going for a slimline calendar again this year unless anyone has any objections. If so, please say so as soon as possible.
Finally, as a rule of thumb, we do like members who have supplied a picture to buy one…but all are welcome to buy even if you haven't provided a picture.
So, please start to add your photos on this thread. Really looking forward to seeing them and for those who missed out on last year’s deadline, get in there early this year and we can hopefully make them the leading stars for a whole month!
