Hi Melody. Will there be another photo contest for next years Windstone calendar?
October 23, 2012 at 1:07 am #887909I hope so! 🙂
October 23, 2012 at 2:19 am #887911Even if not, I’d be happy with using the same photos with a new calendar.
October 23, 2012 at 2:49 pm #887931I ran the calendar contest last year, but I regret that I won’t have time this year at all as I have to travel in November! If someone else at the Factory wants to take it over, then that would work! Maybe it can be a Quest?

I’ll mention it to John again. Last time I talked to him, he didn’t want to do another photo contest for the calendar – He was thinking of doing one with some of the ebay photos I believe. 🙂

John, if you read this, I would love a compromise: Windstones with a setting. Give someone a good camera and follow Melody around your property with a few windstones. The natural settings are what make the current calender so pretty, in my opinion! I can do a few really high quality shots too, if you like.

My art: featherdust.comOctober 23, 2012 at 10:07 pm #887956If we did use In-house studio photos for a calendar they wouldn’t be the eBay photos exactly, but cropped and posed to be a bit more exciting. We have had so many really great special pieces lately that I was feeling they deserved a calendar. But, I don’t know if we will even have the time and manpower to put one together. I will see if we can muster the talent and time as it would be really good to continue producing one every year.

I’d be happy to run it as a quest. We could do all internal judging since we’re not quite to a good point for voting. I could also get it set up through cafe press. That would help save some work for you guys.
If you want the studio shots though, I can’t help a ton with that. 🙂
November 1, 2012 at 4:39 pm #888165I think it would make a great quest <3 I would also be happy with 2 seperate calanders if we couldn't reach an agreement! I'd use one at home and one at work! LOL!
