Yours sounds cool too. If you have any good pictures please send me a few. Please don't post them here first I like my calendar pictures to be fresh and not viewed on the forum first.
I was planning to send you some! how would I do that? I have a TON of pics, how many should I send? I have around 30-60 that are epic-shots/calendar quality. lol
I'm sure there is no concern Rob. Its like comparing a Picasso to a kid scribbling on a sidewalk. Christine's calendar will be awesome.
No need to say things about others calendars. But you are correct that there is no problem submitting any picture you would like me to consider for the calendar I welcome all cool pictures for my calendar.

I have received lots of good pictures and have a good selection, but I would welcome a few more.
The deadline is October 1st so get them in if you want to enter them for my calendar. I will try and have it up for sale the first or second week of October so you will have time to order them for holiday gifts.
The car looks good but the background is not great, but you can send it and I will put it in the pool of picture and compare it to the others. I am going to compare all the picture and have a couple of club members help me pick the top 12 or 24 pictures so all the pictures will be considered. The featured cars will be chosen based on the location, beauty, interest and content of the back ground and the photo quality.
I have not received very many group shots so if you have some good ones please send them, if I do not get enough I will just use the two best ones for the cover and the back page of the one calendar.
Edit: please send more group pictures

A group picture is fine I am going to make two calendars like I did last year one with single Fieros and one with group shots of gatherings and events.
So if you send a group shot tell me where and when the event was held so I can put that at the bottom of the picture.
So far I have more single Fiero pictures so I would love to get more group shots. The Group shot rules are a little loser as I am aware you cannot get them with out people, building and stuff so send me your favorites. If I only get a few grope shots I may just make one calendar and use the group shots for the cover and back page.
As you can see a couple of the single car pages have some cars in the background as I had a limited number of pictures to choose from last year as I did not start making it until late in the year.
So keep the pictures coming as I would like to have a better selection to choose from this year.
I don't think I will be able to get a high enough resolution of the Blue car but I will send it in if I can. I will see if the owner of the Orange one wants to participate too.

The group picture is ok but I have not received enough group pictures to do a group calendar at this point, but there is a week to go so we shall see if I get more.
If you want to try and take some good pictures of your blue car, I have a few suggestions.
The color is bright so you do not want direct sun light on it as you can get a lot of glare. Try taking the pictures when you have some clouds, or in a slightly shaded area with out to many shadows.
Be sure the background in interesting, in a park, old buildings in the background, water falls, flowers gardens, canyons, open spaces, monuments and other cool stuff you have in your area. (not parking lots or neighborhood driveways)
Also consider the angle of the car and the wheels when taking pictures, try taking 3/4 angles of the car, not straight on to the front or the side, turn the wheels so the tire is not pointed at the camera but the side of the wheel is like the car is turning away from the camera so side of both wheels are shown in the picture and not the part of the tire that is on the road. Kind of hard to explain, I hope that make sense.
Thanks for the tips. I wasn't posting that picture for submission just one I had from our last cruise. Hopefully I can get the 84 back on the road this weekend and have some shows of it.
well.....i have 2 cameras. one, i guess is Hi-Res. but this one is not, maybe?? is this too low a Res? most of my Fiero Mera, "Action" pics were taken with this older camera. please let me know. for i have to dig for the betters thanks

I like the second one, it looks good with the sunset and the angle of the car is nice. I cannot tell how good the resolution is from a picture posted here in this thread. I do not want to use any pictures posted on line so if you want to email me a few pictures line these I can then see if they will work.
Please do not post pictures you want considered for the calendar. I do not think people want to buy a calendar that has pictures they have already seen online.
coool thanks....i will delete the bottom one send it plus one other from the same camera. then i know you said only 2 pic per but can i sent 2 i have from a better camera?? i do not know if you had anyother Mera submissions, but i also have a black 1987 base coupe with an 3800 SC engine swap....so i dont want to be a rule breaker but, the Mera shots from the old camera are the best "theme" style i have. thats why i ask.

It is ok if you send more pictures other people have sent me more than 2 so go for it one of the ones you did not think were that good might be the ones we like. I have received only 2 Mera pictures so more would be good.
I have some pics to send in, I'll have to choose which ones so I don't send too many lol is it ok if I edit the colors first? my car is purple but shows up bright blue in some pics...I want to make sure it's purple for the calendar. haha :P

Send me what you have by tomorrow, and yes it is ok to edit the color or Photoshop out stuff you do not want. I do clean up, adjust color and photoshop out stuff in the pictures so adjusting them is fine, as I will be adding or taking away stuff in most of the pictures.
JimmyS I got your last set of pictures.
Everyone: You have until midnight October 1st, 2013
My submission. Did a little cropping after I sent the email. The quality is kinda bad and it was taken in August (didn't get a shot without me, I forgot), and I'm not a picture person but it was fun to send anyway!
Everyone: You have until midnight October 1st, 2013
Sent mine. Had some wifi issues yesterday.... hoping they made it to you under the wire.... I did resend the second email again this am as it looked like it failed last night....
Fingers crossed.
