This review is from: The English Garden Calendar (Calendar) I have ordered calendars, sight unseen, many times over the years, and have always been happy with them upon arrival. Just as in previous years, I used Calendars.com and Amazon.com to view and compare the close-up pictures of all the calendars I considered buying, so I believed I had a pretty good idea of what this calendar would look like. The thing I am most disappointed in is the color. I thought these photos would be vivid and brilliant--as they appear to be when viewing online. In addition, the photos are slightly fuzzy -- not sharp and crisp as I expected. Had they been pictures of sketches or paintings (such as Thomas Kinkade's calendars), I would have expected the colors to be somewhat muted and the focus to be softened, but these are PHOTOGRAPHS -- not drawings/paintings, so they should be clear and bright, in my opinion. The photo on the cover of the calendar looks very good, but that same photo inside the calendar does not look nearly as good.

Photos excellent. Pages stiff so do not curl in the upper corners. |
