Welcome to SL Calendar Girls March 2021 selection. This is a bumper month collection and there were so many new-to-me photographers in the group this month…I think I followed about 25ish people just while going through the pool! Lots of them made it to the list too, which is very exciting and refreshing to see.
Each month I choose a selection of photos from the SL Calendar Girls Flickr photo pool that catch my eye and are my favourite photos added over the course of the month. As we all do, there are bloggers and photographers I admire and, where almost every photo they produce, I adore…it’s hard to pick a favourite photo from those people and one of the biggest challenges for me. Alongside those regular faces I always try to include new-to-me photographers, and artists that are featured less often. Calendar Girls will always be a collection of photos I’ve enjoyed viewing and hopefully you will too. No more, no less.
As mentioned previously, I can no longer link photos marked as moderate on Flickr directly into the blog. Which sucks, there is a workaround which I have done for a couple of photos but as a general rule only safe photos will be able to shown in the selection moving forward. Which is kind of sad cos many of the great photos I see in the group aren’t strictly safe photos and we know we all have to be careful not to enrage the Flickr Gods when uploading our photos there. I will continue to use the workaround for any that I think the list cannot be complete without!
Here is the March 2021 selection:

Why is it that the photos chosen here are always predominantly white avis with a little melanin sprinkled in. This is a misrepresentation of SL. You’re telling me out of OVER SIXY PHOTOS chosen, there were only a handful of black photographers “caught your eye.” Month after month, it’s the same thing- Fair skinned avis are showcased more. SMH.

I don’t look at the colour of the avatar’s at all – just the quality of the photos. I’m confident though that if you look at the composition of the group that I choose from the ratio of submissions to the group is equal to those I select for the blog post.

In fact to double check this I just looked at the first page of the group, the first 100 photos. There is one person of colour. I can only choose from the avatars that submit to the group.

I did some further math to check my gut feeling on this. I took a sample of 1000 photos from the SL Calendars group. Of those 1000 3.9% (39) were photos of avatars of colour. There are 195 photos in the March selection of Calendar Girls of which 21 are avatars of colour…that’s just a snip under 11%. So, in fact, the selection on the blog is far more representative, in percentage terms, than the amount of photos added to the group. I’d personally love to see that number higher still but again, if good photographers don’t wish to put their photos in the group to be selected then there is nothing that I can do about that.
