I wonder how those fanatical DNMC voters are going to accept images from the Southern Hemisphere where the monthly title is required but it does not coincide with the Northern Hemisphere seasons.
I predict more controversy and forum rants with this requirement to title your calendar shot with a month.

Your title should be the month to which your photo belongs:
I guess their will be lots of February shots. |

This is actually one of the first things that crossed my mind regarding the title/month requirement. Pretty sad that the first thing to cross my mind about the challenge wasn't what subject I would be photographing. |

January brings the snow,
Makes our feet and fingers glow.
February brings the rain,
Thaws the frozen lake again.
March brings breezes sharp and shrill,
Shakes the dancing daffodil.
April brings the primrose sweet,
Scatters daisies at our feet.
May brings flocks of pretty lambs,
Skipping by their fleecy dams.
June brings tulips, lillies, roses,
Fills the children's hands with posies.
Hot July brings cooling showers,
Apricots and gillyflowers.
August brings the sheaves of corn,
Then the harvest home is borne.
Warm September brings the fruit,
Sportsmen then begin to shoot.
Brown October brings the pheasant,
Then to gather nuts is pleasant.
Dull November brings the blast,
Then the leaves go whirling past.
Chill December brings the sleet,
Blazing fire and Christmas treat.
OR:
January brings the snow;
Makes our feet and fingers glow.
February brings the rain;
Thaws the frozen pond again.
March brings the wind so cold and chill;
Drives the cattle from the hill.
April brings us sun and showers,
And the pretty wildwood flowers.
May brings grass and leafy trees,
Waving in each gentle breeze.
June brings roses, fresh and fair,
And the cherries ripe and rare.
July brings the greatest heat,
Cloudless skies and dusty street.
August brings the golden grain;
Harvest time is here again.
Mild September brings us more
Fruit and grain, for winter store.
Brown October brings the last
Of ripening gifts, from summer past.
Dull November brings the blast:
Down from the trees the leaves fall fast.
Cold December ends the rhyme
With blazing fires and Christmas time.
Sara Coleridge

Or as it was immortalised by Michael Flanders and Donald Swann in their version (referring of course, to the British weather)
A Song of the Weather
January brings the snow
Makes your feet and fingers glow
February's Ice and sleet
Freeze the toes right off your feet
Welcome March with wintry wind
Would thou wer't not so unkind
April brings the sweet spring showers
On and on for hours and hours
Farmers fear unkindly May
Frost by night and hail by day
June just rains and never stops
Thirty days and spoils the crops
In July the sun is hot
Is it shining? No, it's not
August cold, and dank, and wet
Brings more rain than any yet
Bleak September's mist and mud
Is enough to chill the blood
Then October adds a gale
Wind and slush and rain and hail
Dark November brings the fog
Should not do it to a dog
Freezing wet December then:
Bloody January again!
(January brings the snow
Makes your feet and fingers glow).
-- Michael Flanders

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why,
why,
why,
why do I get these wonderful images in my head but when it comes to making them a reality it becomes SUCH a production with Pre-production to Post-Production!!!
Sigh, I just discovered a 'prop' will not hold the weight of something that is instrumental to the scene.
Sigh, I will have to put this idea on the backburner til I can figure a way to gerryrig it to hold the weight.
Now to plan B..... |

While I was out taking photos for this challenge a friend mentioned to be careful with dramatic borders since calender images were usually border free, however, I didnt agree with him, and now found some proof that a border shouldn't lower the score of your entry. |

| I think a black border is fine. But often people do colors to "tie in" with their image and I find that distracting. :~) |
