The Super-Taricha photo is really funny. I also had to laugh at Ben Thesing's photo of the belly-side of Eurycea multiplicata, as I imagine what my coworkers would say. They already say that the Caudata calendar in my office is "kinda gross". I would be happy to have this photo in the calendar, but certain people would probably never come into my office again!

awesome stuff. The Supertaricha definitely has to be in there. I also think the Lyciasalamandra and the S.atra with the yellow spots is cool. And the spectacled sal doing the defensive cartwheel. Totally awesome.I love it when we get pics of species that are not often photographed.

Really amazing intros this year, love Mario's Ambystomid pictures! Truly Divine!
Sadly I cant make a selection on my own and I seriously don't know what the team is looking for this year for the calendar. I have multiple shots on a to z genders/species but no clue what is the most seek type of shot...
I'll take some suggestions! http://www.flickr.com/photos/54672057@N04/sets/
Cheers,

Dear Joost, is that a Mie Prefecture fire belly?

Re: Photo Competition - 2012 Caudata.org Calendar

Really pleased to see some great entries in the last few days. Tim Herman's photos are not only great, but the species in the photos are so unusual!

Re: Photo Competition - 2012 Caudata.org Calendar

More of a sidenote here, but are some of those Pics available in higher resolutions ? Still searching for background for my new 24"...

Really pleased by Tim Hermans entry...such unusual views.

Thanks guys. We've got some exciting stuff going on in Guatemala. Needless to say I've been thrilled with finding 5 Nyctanolis on the past two trips!

Coolest species on the planet I think...

That’s the lot folks! The competition is now closed. Thanks very much to all who took the time to enter.

Judging will take place over the next week or so and the 13 winners will be announced soon after. Good luck to all.

Re: Photo Competition - 2012 Caudata.org Calendar

Dear Joost, is that a Mie Prefecture fire belly?

Yes, you've noticed it right. It's a young adult male C. pyrrhogaster (F1 2009) from the Mie prefecture.

Re: Photo Competition - 2012 Caudata.org Calendar

Hey guys,

how is the voting going? I am starting to fear that my calendar can´t be delivered in time for Christmas (or worse - for January!), since the shipping to Germany always takes sooo long...

Cheers,
Laura
