Re-arranging the icons is probably the easiest solution! I don't pay much attention to the calendar so tend to drag them out of the way of the subject. The calendar does change position to suit the image.
Contrary to popular myth Nick doesn't have to buy a new main every time Fairwinds appears in the pic.

Cheers Dave - managed to switch off the snap to grid feature for the desktop icons, so I now have the excellent picture - just as Nick intended ! but
messy icons still
at least I can put the ones I use most in the best position.
Drag your icons to the least cluttered part of the picture and roughly group them as you would like then select 'line up icons'
You are not the first person to compalin about this, but the calendar is put where it shows up best on the picture without interfering with it - so it can't be in the same place every month. In any case, every pic is different, and you don't want to obscure the best bits with icons.
A monthly desktop reorganisation is good for the soul.
