Islamic / Hijri / Arabic Calendar

A calendar showing both Islamic and Gregorian dates.

I Am Unable to Create the Islamic Calendar That I Wanted To

Well, I have bad news. Because I want to create a calendar with images of people, and in order to use images of recognizable people a model-release is needed, I won't be able to make this calendar for 2010. Short of traveling around the world, taking pictures of Muslim people everywhere, and obtaining model releases for each one, I couldn't possibly obtain the images I need without help from the Muslim community. That's why I created this lens, askingMuslims around the world to submit their images, but I have asked too late in the year. Absolutely no one has submitted an image thus far. I now know that I will need to work much harder to get the word out to enough people who will want to contribute their images to this calendar. So I will keep this lens up, making regular updates to it, showing the progress of the calendar, which will now for 2011.


Please help me to spread the word around the world so that I can get the most beautifully varied selection of images that will best represent the global umma.
