I know with the calendar contest there were a bunch of pics to go through, so @Brad may be a tiny bit behind. I can't wait to vote as well!

 

[Brad]

Voting was supposed to begin yesterday but I'm still working on the reduction phase. Lots of good photos. Voting should start by tomorrow morning.

Voting has started

The competition this month was very tough and many great photos did not make it to the final round. Keep in mind that the decisions are based more on photo composition rather than how attractive a particular chameleon may be. If you want to learn more about how your photo ranked among the other entries you are welcome to send me a private message.
