Pictures for 6gc.net calendar 2014, Deadline: end of August Options

[malpaso]

Hello everyone ,
Since last year timing worked perfect I believe it is right time to start talking about calendar 2014 (if we want some here of course ). I suggest this timing:

June - August = submitting some low resolution samples here in this topic (width 800 pixels would be for display purpose fine) to let us all know how many people is interested to participate.
August = collection of high resolution samples for print purpose (3437 x 2043 pixels or higher). That means if you do not have picture in high resolution there is no sense post in here anything. Sorry. All will be send as usual to my e-mail.



1st of September = selection of 12+1 (public voting, no mistakes from the last year)
15th of September = FS topic start
15th of October = calendar printing
November = distribution to all buyers (so you all will have it at home before Christmas for 100% ).

Update September 1st:
The list of posted pictures created to not miss anyone.

Looks like I have some work to do before August then

[Timmyface]

Put me down for a submission again.. whatever photo anyone suggests i'm fine with haha

[Tigawoods]

thats a fair timeline. more than enough time to get some pictures together.

what what design will you be going with? I recall that took up a but of time to decide. Just throw some random pics in as placeholders and we could figure out that part now!

[rentaspace]

Count me in, if I can manage to get a good photo (y)
I'm thinking that I may try my luck at a night time photo

[cheela]

just got a new camera so count me in too.

[underground_desi...]

OOOOOOOOOOk !
Where do I sign?

Thanks all for inputs. I believe there is great potential to collect 13 decent pictures . About design of calendar I have just an idea. I remember voting (one A4 as 2012 design or 2xA4 as 2013 design) and it was pretty close. So right now I lean to simple A4 size with new layout. I will throw something to Photoshop and post.

Only what is needed now from all who want to participate is:

...
June - August = submitting some low resolution samples here in this topic (width 800 pixels would be for display purpose fine) to let us all know how many people is interested to participate.

If members are thinking of entering, suggest you have a look at the previous years calendars for ideas, also I think it's worth a look at the photoshop, Celica of the month or any photography help thread/s or other photography sites to help with shooting photos of your celica, have fun and best of luck to everyone.




and malpaso, if you'd like some announcements made or anything special done to the threads pm me

Thank you so much mate! It is exactly as Rusty wrote. And remember "the rule of thirds" . It will help to use the picture if design below (or something similar) is used:



For something like this wide format of the picture will be needed (or classic but with chance to crop it)

[Timmyface]

That design looks decent. I'm fine either way.
Here's my two options:



Someone else decide. Haha

[snagmor]

@timmy, personal opinion, but go with the bottom one. It jsut looks so clean!

[Timmyface]

Opinions are appreciated!! If there are any other photos anyone has seen from me to suggest, fire away. Just chose these two to put my interest in

AAAAh... Mate. You gave me inspiration . See this:



When having similar composition for all remaining pictures it would be great calendar!



in fact even not that perfect one can be "tweaked"... below 4:3 (wrong ration) and central composition:



when moved and cropped it gives some space to work with...



And after some stretching on the top we have at least this:



Yes. Nothing stunning... but with added calendar layout (just slightly modified) it is not that big tragedy at all (IMO):

I like this!!!!

It would be pretty good if the images were in that thirds format, but even so, I think it will work
I might edit that photo of mine again, remove that patch on the wall. Haha

[jordisonjr]

I love what we did with last yaer in terms of layout. with a large pic on top, and a smaller pic with the squares/dates on the bottom page.
Looks great.

[sr666]

Is it for current cars only only I wouldn't mind popping one of Daisy in before I sold her

[Tigawoods]

ya think some detail shots would work?
Ive been in a details mood the past little while
example:

[Timmyface]

Put a 6gc logo on the left, than the members names that are featured in the calendar. And that can be the cover!!

[ILoveMySilly97]

Man in really going to get a good pic of my car once I get my axle fixed. Lol.
