2018 National Park Foundation Wall Calendar

Darn, I hate to be the lone dissenter, but I was disappointed in the pictures. Not in the photography exactly - the scenes are awesome - but in the way the photos were edited. In my copy some of the pictures look like they were taken just a little too far in Photoshop (specifically July, October, November, and to some extent May). Some colors are unnatural, which is what bothers me most.. I won't order this one again, but since I added all the birthdays to this one already, I'll keep it. Hoping I just got a bad print and the others are better.

Poorly laid out calender if you plan to write appointments on the days.... Most of the calendar is filled with useless trivia for each day leaving you no space to write in your own stuff. If you just want a calender to look at but not actually write anything in it might be okay. Why full each day of the week with pointless facts?

The calendar itself is nice, but the printing and photos are of questionable quality.The color balance and color temperature is off on every photo, and over saturated. The cover photo is in fact is blue-greenish and way over saturated. I couldn't find one photo that had black blacks, or white whites. The blacks are purplish, bluish or greenish. Besides that, the tonal resolution is poor, blown out dark and light areas (these are areas with zero detail), and too much contrast. Honestly the printing isn't even the quality of ads I get in my mailbox, and nothing close to what you would see in a national geographic magazine, or something similar.The last page of the calendar says all the photos are stock, from places like Getty images. All they did is download stock images, and put them into a calendar template. No photographer credit, no date of when the photos were taken.The calendar is of stapled together construction, with coated heavy weight paper. Has 12 months. Made in China.I rate two stars, because the calendar is cheap in price, has a nice calendar grid with all the holidays, and it's for the national park foundation. It's too bad they couldn't do a first class job.

I bought this calendar to put up at my office and I'm very happy with it.This calendar has gorgeous photos from different national parks. I've read some reviews commenting the photos are digitally enhanced too much, but I'm not bothered by it.Another review commented there isn't enough room to write down information because of the factoids and additional photo included for each month. I have a separate planner that I use for detail information and for appointments and have been in the habit for the last couple of years of just highlighting the date on my wall calendar as a reminder-at-a-glance that I have something going that do, so the amount of space provided is enough for me. I'm also enjoying the little bits of info that have been added to the calendar.A third review commented about the construction quality of the calendar. Again, I think this is a pretty adequate calendar. It's not falling apart at the binding, so it's fine with me. I know this calendar is for fundraising for the National Park Foundation, so I understand there's a fine line between balancing the quality of the product & price of the product and raising enough proceeds to justify doing the fundraiser (I'm looking at you, my nephew's school who decided to sell Yankee Candles for $50 a pop!). I'm happy with the amount of money I spent for the calendar and appreciate what I'm getting in exchange. I plan on buying again next year.

Beautiful pictures and big squares for the dates, busy family with lots of things to write so love it has space for that

Disappointed in these photos. Makes me feel like someone was sent out to take the pictures and rushed through it to get the job over with.

I don't really use calendars so I bought this for the amazing photos. I am selling my house and needed something to depersonalize the decor. I bought this to put in my picture frames. The final result is fantastic. Will post photos.

This calendar is great! The pictures are beautiful and it helps support the National Parks Foundation. ♥️There is plenty of room to write in each day, and I think the pictures are great quality. To get a nice calendar at a decent price & support a fantastic organization is a definite win-win

Great views great memories and it tells you the date

As described.

I liked the speedy and perfect service and the condition the calendar arrived. Thank you

da tenere in considerazione che la settimana inizia con la domenica, quindi a livello schematico nella tabella del mese si ha la prima colonna a sinistra composta da tutte le domeniche

Die Bilder sind schön und groß.
