Here, in her own words, is a little about the process of making the calendar.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is a pleasure to make the Victron Energy calendar every year and each year it is a real challenge to make it different to previous years. For the 2017 version we thought it would be nice to use &#8216;real&#8217; people instead of models (unlike previous calendars) and to do that I shot the photos with the Victron product applications along with the people who own those products. This year&#8217;s calendar is a desktop version, whereas earlier ones were wall hanging versions.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m already busy with preparations for the 2018 calendar &#8211; all I can say about that is it&#8217;ll be different yet again, when compared to preceding years!&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>No 2017 Calendar?<\/h3>\n<p>If you didn&#8217;t receive this year&#8217;s calendar, here&#8217;s a sample of the months to date. I&#8217;ve left out the circuit diagrams, secondary photos and the full Victron system specifications &#8211; this is simply so you can see the principal photos and get a flavour of Marianka&#8217;s work.<\/p>\n<h4>January<\/h4>\n<p>Tiny House, The Netherlands: this is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marjoleininhetklein.com\" target=\"_blank\">Marjolein Jonker\u2019s Tiny House<\/a>.

The result of a secret calendar project!\r\n\r\nThe whole project has been managed by Marianka Pranger, plus she even took all but one of the photos herself. Marianka has multiple work roles within Victron and now we know, that besides her normal 'day job', she also has a fantastic creative and photographic talent. It is really remarkable.\"<\/pre>\n<p>If you didn&#8217;t get a calendar you can check stock in the P&amp;A App. Distribution is taken care of by Victron area managers, dealers and distributors.<\/p>\n<p>John Rushworth<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hopefully many of you will have received Victron Energy&#8217;s calendar at the beginning of this year.
