Such has been the continuing popularity of The Herald Picture of the Day and such has been the quality of the photographs submitted last year, that we have decided once again to publish the best readers’ images from the past year in a 2017 Herald calendar for everyone to enjoy.
Barclay McBain, Executive Editor of The Herald, said he was delighted that the high quality of photographs submitted by readers over the past year enabled us to publish a selection of the most striking in our 2017 calendar. As in previous years, all profits from sales of the calendar will go to charity. Profits from this year’s calendar will go to the National Autistic Society Scotland. Neither The Herald nor Garthland, the Glasgow-based company that printed the calendar, will make any commercial gain from the venture.
Herald readers whose photographs appear in the calendar have kindly agreed to waive copyright for the publication. We had great fun selecting the images. We hope you thoroughly enjoy them too. To remind you of the skills of our own photographers and to whet your appetite for the pages that follow, we showcase below images taken by our staff photographers that capture aspects of Scotland in all her glory.
The calendar is 320mm x 470mm and contains 12 double page spreads with memo block dates. All profits from sales of the calendar will go to The National Autistic Society Scotland.
The Herald calendar costs £8, inc UK P&P with £2.50 from each sale going direct to The National Autistic Society Scotland. The remainder covers costs. Please allow 21 days for delivery.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
