Firstly the calendar is not a competition it's a commercial venture by a publisher who pays artists for the use of their images. If you read the information posted at the website 600 images were submitted by 67 artists worldwide for the last calendar. On average 9 images per artist. Of those 600 200 were selected (approx 3 per artist) and sent to the publisher. Linda and Panny are guaranteed at least 1 image each in the calendar for the amount of work they put into the venture. It's the publishers (who are not the co-ordinators) that select the remaining 11 images based on what they like and think will sell. Knowing the impeccable reputations of both ladies involved I would say that each artist that submits would have at least 2 images each in the final 200. If someone has 2, 3 or 4 images in the calendar or has been successful in a number of calendars over the years, good luck to them, they are obviously providing images that the publishers think will sell....quite simple when you think about it.
