A little earlier in the year I had taken a photo of a flower that I was particularly pleased with, so I decided to submit it to this project for the "Flowers" calendar. I had little confidence that it would be accepted for the calendar, as the forum has many outstanding photographers which more experience than I, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to try.
So, I was completely flabbergasted when my photo was in fact selected to be included in the "Flowers" calendar. It will be the October photo.
I'll quote description of the project from the calendar sales site:
A little over a year ago, some forum members from BroadbandReports.com's Digital Imaging forum discussed how to collectively use the photographs that they were taking to help out a charity. The result is Shooting For A Cause. Currently, we have a line of four calendars. Five dollars from the sale of each calendar will go to help The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children®.
