I am starting to figure out which pictures to use for the First Annual Calendar of HellZiggy's Photography.

Calendars generally use horizontal pictures.

Most people shoot the majority of their pictures horizontally because that is the way the camera is.

I'm apparently a freak. I would say that I do about 50% of my pictures vertically. 

Since I can't just pick only 12 pictures that I like anyway, I think I'm going to have to design each calendar page using 2 or 3 pictures... Then I can use some of my verticals since many of them are my favorites.

Anyhow, if you want to see what some of the pictures I'm considering (and put your two cents worth in on which ones you like) I've got a temporary gallery of them all grouped together here:  http://www.dreamflyte.com/gallery/temp

*edit* [profile] mcbarnes1970 gave me a good idea. Drop a comment right into the gallery for the ones you like. :) And of course, mention here that you did so I know to go look, and because I'm a comment attention whore. *grin*

I commented on the ones I like. I expect I will see one of those calendars in the mail this Christmas? :)

If you shell out the bucks for one! :) I'm probably going to use lulu.com for the printing and everyone who wants one can order from there. I'd love to print them and send them to the Christmas card list, but I haven't won the lottery yet, darn it!

Plug:
My dad does custom-printed calendars, if you supply the pictures, and can even do verticals.

That's cool!
Unfortunately it probably won't work for me. I'm going to go the Lulu.com route or something similar so that I don't have to invest money into the printing costs. If all my friends & family buy them I may look into other options for future years, but for this first one I think print to order is probably the best route to go.

I commented. Hey... didn't you have a super-closeup of a bearded iris? That should be in there too!
