September is here, soon autumn will be with us. This is my signal to start work on the 2016 Calendar.
My task is to sort through the years images and somehow come up with 13 stunning shots.
As I review the files there are a few special shots which will almost certainly be included in this next years calendar and in other cases I have a series of shots from a particular spot and need help choosing which is the best one for the calendar. This is where you come in, I will post a grouping of images from a specific spot. Please vote for your favorite in each section by making a comment below or emailing me at: andyporterphotography@gmail.com
