I've already posted this comment at the imaging group
I don't think the "Imager of the year" suggestion is a good idea at all
Firstly, how would such a person be chosen and on what criteria?
And secondly, what purpose does it serve?
A "Person of the year" type acolade IMO might perhaps be presented to somebody who has made outstanding and charitable "contributions" to our hobby, but not for someone who has simply produced "the best...?" image/s

?
If it is awards we are after there are real imaging competitions that we can enter our work in for recognition but as far as this forum goes, I think we should just keep on just posting our work and sharing this great and rewarding hobby with no strings attached...?
The callender is a different story though, what ever tickles one's fancy I guess?
