I recently posted a thread asking for opinions on which calendar
to produce featuring XPF cars (or members ). Thanks to those who
replied to the survey.
I am now looking to start work on a XPF wall calendar and so
this is a general request for forum members to post me their
picture, before the closing date 31st August. This will enable
me to go to print and have them available for purchase 1st
October.
There was talk of a risqué calendar but unless there is a
definite direction with this I think we should keep it to MGs
only (although I wouldn't rule out tasteful glamour shots if the
MG was prominent).
Once pictures have been received, a selection will be made that
reflects fairly on the XPF.
Sorry, I can't do first come first served, as I'm sure you will
appreciate that some pictures will have a better crop and
quality than others plus I could end up with the first 12
pictures representing only one model so its up to you to give me
your best shot! When considering your picture, please be aware
of backgrounds, shadows and lighting, for example an MG with a
skip behind it shot at 9pm isn't going to look its best and the
same goes for car show pictures where everyone is parked next to
each other. Try and isolate your car and give the background
some consideration, choose something that complements the car
but doesn't overwhelm it. Hope the advice helps.
If there are more than 12 pictures that are suitable, then with
the owners permission, these could be carried over to a 2007
calendar.
For those who prefer a desk calendar I would be happy to do a
short run if there is a minimum of 10 orders.
The email address to send digital pictures to is:
martindhoney@yahoo.co.uk
For standard photographs please pm me for my address.
Finally, to give me an idea of how many calendars I will need to
print, can we do an infamous XPF LIST.
Many thanks.
Martin Honey
