Good exposure to depict cool, end of summer, soft breezes. Eloquently cropped to give depth of field. There's an optical balance/illusion here that makes the perfectly horrizontal water horrizon line look tilted significantly clockwise. I would tend to compensate for the human eye rather than go with the truth for this image as the tilt, if only illusionary, is sadly still very distracting. 7.

Nice. Very nice. For me this photo captures the callendar season and also the cool softness accompanying that season. The close-up adds a feeling of "forget me not" one might associate with a fading summer. Exposure is excellent imo. Aperture perfect, colour balance great. Perhaps a little too abstract for the average callendar... but not for mine. 8.

Ideal shot for a calendar. I like the shadows on the clean white building. I might have made the frame larger to the left and right with a considerably more clear sky above the steeple to give it space to "extend heavenward." Perhaps the bright white has over-exposed a little also?

Nice lighting in terms of shadow elimination. A little over-exposed around the yellow. I think this would have come of better with the focus more on the petals and same moved more toward center frame.

Lovely shot. Maybe just a tad over-exposed. You've caught the kitten at a perfect moment. I can see the anticipation and wonder. I sense a leap out of the box is imminent! 8.

Lovely shot for a calendar. Difficult to get exposure right on snow... perhaps a polarising lens filter? (Yeah, wish I had one of those too!). I might have set the frame a little higher to include just a few more complete tall trees, but not so much as to detract from the center piece depicting the season so well. 7.

A beatifully clear photo. nicely cropped and center. Good exposure. I wonder if moving the backdrop further away might have elliminated those distracting shadows? Perhasp some of the white flowers could have been trimmed to keep everything inside the frame?

Interesting shot. I like the "confusion of seasons" from the contrasting dead leaves and very much alive greenery. Given the autum foliage in the background also, I would like to see the half-length top of the fenc just below frame center to balance earth and sky more. Exposure is perfect imo.

Great expression here. "Oh great. Chrismas again! Ho hum." hehe. A little over exposed in the white areas unfortunately, but a nice calendar shot none the less.

A nice depiction of fall (autum where I'm from :) in the lasst of the summer light. In hindsight, perhaps the focus point could have been pulled slightly closer to the camera? The season is wonderfully captured though, and the depth and contrast comes off well for me.
