Nice One Quaz.....Especially the basketball, soccer and fastpitch teams....Now, are these varsity teams?
Or clubs?...not that it makes a difference..If you could enlarge the gal holding the basketball, that would be awesome

Obviously, it goes without saying how brilliant and creative this calendar is. My one beef with it, the same as last year, is the extreme "watered down with whiteness" look to the images. Some parts of bodies disappear into the white background. Perhaps simply using a non-white background would help with this issue? I'm not sure how much it is done on purpose. I've had confirmed from another source (different from last year) that indeed, for each shot, the students pose naked for 1-2 hours.

The last image I'm putting in this post is what a PS calendar page looks like scanned with my scanner, with my scanner properties at highest darkness and contrast levels. Even at those top levels, the scans look dull and very washed-out. I had to play with the images a bit and also added the clothed picture into each image as a vignette. As my altered images look much more full of life and color than the originals, I'm not sure how much true color is represented. But I think most will agree it's a much better alternative than just the scans alone. If anyone wants a photo closeup of anything, just holler.

Enjoy!
