Help me pick photos for my main 2014 nature photography calendar

Today, I’m asking your feedback on photos I’d like to include in my 2014 calendar on flowers and blooms. Just tell me which ones you’d really want to see, and which ones I should definitely keep or get rid of. I appreciate your honest feedback.

I assigned a month to each photo. Some months only have one picture assigned to them, others have several. Give me your honest opinion of which photo would be best for each month. If you don’t like the single photo for a month and would rather see another one on this list, please let me know too. For example, if you’d like to see raindrops in February but prefer the ones I chose for March instead of that month, tell me so.

Remember that everyone who comments on one of my 2014 photo calendar related posts will be entered in a drawing to win one of my calendars (you can pick your favorite theme). The only requirement I have for the winner is to be located within the U.S., mostly because the calendar will contain U.S. holidays and it will be more helpful to that person. For every calendar post that you comment on, you will earn one drawing entry (one entry per blog post, not per comment). I’m planning to give away one calendar to a lucky winner, and possibly another one to the person who comes in second, depending on the number of participants.

You can click on any photo below to open the slideshow and view everything in a larger format. Please include your comments into the post comment section directly, not on individual photos, to make it easier for everyone to see your feedback. Thank you!

These rain clouds creeping and crawling over the hills of San Diego during a winter storm always look eerie.

The landscape in front of those hills was just as eerie looking as the clouds on that day – out of this world.

There’s something quite eerie about fog, don’t you think?

Especially when the fog is very thick and you can barely see a few feet away.

I love the eerie effect of a full moon creeping out from between the clouds. Can you hear the coyotes howl?

I enjoyed taking this photo of pink grasses as they shoot across the horizon in the foreground.

Here’s the horizon on top of the mountains in Idyllwild, California. On that clear day, you could see up to 100 miles away.

How about this moon going up the horizon in the daylight?

I love the beauty of the horizon at sunrise.
