Finally a month where it's nice and easy to pick a winner :D

This photo would be a worthy winner even if there was competition.

Hey, isn't there some rule about not commenting on photos until after the poll closes? Ah yes, there it is up the top of this very page: "Please avoid commenting on individual competition entries before the associated poll has closed, so as to avoid influencing other voters."

Your comments might influence other people's voting in this poll and totally skew the results!

That was an interesting experience. Although I don't think I voted for the winner.

No - every entry was an equal winner - with no tie breaker vote.
But seriously - if I am reading Matts nice new emag correctly - there are no calendars for this year. :(

Just a technical issue. I need to get into the Database and push this through manually - just haven't had time yet sorry.
Will get to it soon.
