Just returned from south Florida, and I thought the water in calendar picture looked mormal... Kidding, the thread derailed in my opinion when
November (current month page)'08 page was not mentioned. This fantastic aerial shot by a very talented photographer was taken out the dirty, faded,
and scratched windows of my old plane, affectionately reffered to as 'the POS". Now I'm no photography expert, but I think this was an amazing feat
from a low wing plane, dangling sideways in his threadbare seat belt.
Seriously though, I am sure this years calendar will be great and wish the producers the best with displaying their view of Baja.
As for the CaboBoys, we have been scouting locations, dodging Ida, And drinking rum. This one will be good! I'll post a report link when the time
comes.
Cheers,

My Sweet Cap - Photogs for the November '08 and '09 pix think that dangling sideways from POS's threadbare seat is the only way to shoot, thank you
ever so much.
This year's calendar photog dangles from his ultralight wholly out there in the breeze. I've seen him buzz Tecolote/Balandra/Espiritu Santu many many
times. Looks like great fun in and of itself. And yes, me thinks this year's calendar will look great hanging from the wall of many a nomad.
Far as you 'n the Boyz and your upcoming trip.... the mainland had best prepare. Not sure they're ready for all y'all.

Oops, Youre right as usual Nena. Its November '09... sorry i dont have my land legs back. I was really just using it as an excuse to brag about Mr. S,
and to make the point that everyone sees the same place differently, and the amount of work/talent that goes into an endevour like that is
considerable. I look forward to the coming opus.
I have returned from a ferry flight to Miami, that became a scouting trip of sorts... I have regained my respect for Tropical storms, Single Barrel
Rums, and lovely S. American cabin crew personnel. 
The Mainland trip is on soon, but after a serious shake up in the Cabo Boys, the dates are a matter of group security.
I can tell you that next years' Rendevous is Miami and involves some time in Bolivia.
I believe we have the aerial video camera system nearly perfected, so the next movie should be another step up from previous attempts.
I will post a link when things draw near, and we will be overhauling the website, and attempting a fly in for next year.
Fly low, land on roads.

Hi all - just a thank you to Carlos for continunig the calendar and doing a wonderful job - I envy those who can take aeriel photos - they all seem
sureal to me - just like Natalie Anns in the past 2 calendars. As I sit on my front porch here in Bahia de los Angeles every evening and watch the
sun set on the islands turning them from realistic brown tones to jetblack, to bright white, and reds, and the water turning from ominous grey-blue,
to tourquoise green, to dark blue then magenta, and I snapping picture after picture of these truly unbelievable color changes, I can't help but
wonder who is doing the photoshopping.....
I hope every nomad will buy a calendar and enjoy Baja every day!

Thank you Marv!
Marv;
Publishing the 2010 Baja Calendar has been a huge learning curve for me and I can't thank you enough for all of your support over the last few months.
It's now in the printer's hands and I will have them in the mail to those who have ordered them very soon. I think the fun part will be traveling in
Baja and distributing them to Baja fans. I am happy to provide a 20% discount to any Baja Nomad members who order them. That's only $10 per calendar
and I am happy to do it for anyone who supports this great Baja Institution: Baja Nomad!
Thanks again Marv for trusting me with your baby. I will try to do a good job!
Carlos

Now that I've seen it in person, I want to say this is a very impressive calendar this year, utilizing the spectacular "from the air" photos of
Charles Chandler.
Nice job.

I'm the photographer who took the photos for the calendar. I gave the calendar printer my camera raw files. I take no responsibility for the image
enhancement. I do think the calendar came out nice, I have only seen one copy and looked at it for about a minute. I doubt that many digital pictures
in calendars have pictures without adjustments. If anyone wants a digital image or print, with or without image enhancement please contact me - http://www.charleschandlerphotography.com/
Thanks,
Charles Chandler

Thanks Charles... I hope you continue to take great photos and help Carlos Fiesta with the calendars... Don't let a couple of Nomads with criticism
deter you!
If you are taking requests... I would love to see some of Baja's palm canyons from the air...
