Need to stop re-cycling photos
Spirit of China 2010 Wall Calendar (Calendar)

I have ordered this calendar for several years, for myself and as a present for others, because the photos had such an ethereal, serene beauty. The 2010 calendar, however, looked very familiar when I received my copies recently. The reason, it turned out, is that at least 1/4-1/3 of the photos were re-cycled from prior years' calendars. I realize that the photographer who took the photos died sometime after 2000-2001, so the stock of available photographs may be limited. Even so, buyers should be aware that there is a good bit of repetition if they have purchased or will purchase this "Spirit of China" calendar over a period of years.

Unique Photographs
I'm an enthusiastic fan of photographer don hong oai, and I love the calendar bearing his images. They are ethereal, delicate, artful.
