My photo was #46 - and it was also quite close in the running to get that 13th spot! Thanks to everyone who voted for it (and thanks to Ramón who would have! LOL!).
Looking back at previous calendar polls, I think this one has been the most popular so far - so many people voted! Its fantastic!
As with other, I am a bit surprised that some of the photos didn't get more votes - the close up macro shots were awesome, I thought!

Al, your pic was great, definately one that stood out. They really were all great. Most of my votes got picked so I either have great taste or very common taste.LOL

Paul,
I have to agree. That one was intricate and eye-catching. There were a couple of others that were gorgeous that didn't make the vote cut (ie #1, 18, 24, 27). So many of those were art shots, to me. It's still going to be a pretty calendar.

Tony, thanks for the info! It's a beautiful flower (and a fantanstic pic). The lip is just incredible. I have doubts whether or not I'll be able to find it here in the US though.
