Someone could vote for all 49, but in effect, that would be the same as not voting at all - since there wouldn't be any differentiation.

I'm so happy to see so many people participating! All of the great photos that everyone submitted, and over 100 people have voted already. It's going to be a great calendar!

excellent variety of photos to choose from. I prefer the photos with a solid background rather than a background too cluttered with distractions. That Disa is stunning and would make an excellent eye catching cover, even though most of us don't grow them and I hope I get the chance to try one out soon.

Default Orchid calendar photos

After looking at all the photos I have come to the conclusion that I like orchid photographed against a natural background as long as it is not too fussy and does not compete with the orchid. I guess for my taste, this rules out the ones photographed against black.

I also appreciate the posts for people who did the logical and voted for either 12 or 13 photos for a calendar.

That sucks. Votes are final, nothing can be done about it now. I'd have to make a new poll, but that would piss off 180 people so we will leave it the way it is. Fren your vote accounts for 1/2% of all the votes, so it's not too bad.
