I'll just throw in another 'don't buy' suggestion- Don't buy the 3 calendar Herbert Worthington deal online right now, my 3 arrived about a week ago, I decided I "had" to have them. The 2008 one I like the most, the 2009 one I don't like, and the '07-08 one is mediocre, at best. The '08 has 3 shots I like enough to mat and frame, that's about it. Those 3 are quite striking- but the '09 calendar has so many 'how could he have chosen THAT photograph' entries, I'm really disappointed in the quality of paper, some of the shots are too dark, or blurred, in the '09 one, and it's just not first rate, at all, overall, any of the calendars. And for $70 with shipping, I was expecting them to at least be lush, in texture and resolution- they're not. (And supposedly, I saved $40 by buying all three!) They just don't look 'expensive' and they should.
And Herbie's assistant needs to learn how to pack the calendars so they don't get dog-eared and creased. DUH. Just mail them flat in that Priority Mail box, without folding the sides which turn it into a box. Also, don't tape them to a piece of cardboard so the right bottom of the '09 cover gets a 2" crease. Stupid. Also, don't professionally done calendars always have the cover shot somewhere inside without the writing? Or an 'index' if you will of all the photos, either on the back cover, or at the beginning?
Cheap, cheap. And I just looked at the '09 one again- hideous choices of photographs.
