Cute. Are these the originals or did you crop them?

I cropped them.

Landscape only?

Since the calendar is printed on 11-inch wide by 8.5-inch tall paper, pictures should be in landscape mode, not square, & not portrait.

However, as long as I can crop it to fit the template, it will be judged.

Cropping Examples.​

New for this year! Photos in the portrait format will be accepted if they can be cropped. Below are examples of photos that can and cannot be cropped to fit the template.

This is an image we might consider if it's well-focused, well-composed, and aesthetically pleasing.

Hope this helps!
