2013 Archive - Poll for May Photo Competition: Celebrating the Reign of a Queen CLOSED

[Isabelle Prondzynski]

Photo of the month competition - instructions on how to vote for your favourite photo

The theme of the May competition was "Celebrating the Reign of a Queen", a theme that lets members contribute photos showing celebrations on board or linked with QE2.  During this month, we are also remembering the jubilee celebrations of Queen Elizabeth II. 

With 28 wonderful photos submitted to this month's competition there certainly were lots of good memories of celebrations which we would all like to relive once more!

Once again we have a special prize for the winner of this competition - Fincantieri's book, written by the eminent Maurizio Eliseo, about the building of the new Queen Elizabeth -- a very desirable prize.

See more details here: https://www.theqe2story.com/forum/index.php/topic,4297.0.html

Forum members can vote for their favorite photo(s).  Each member has 3 votes (but please do not vote for your own photo).  Voting is open to all members regardless of whether or not you submitted a photo. 

To make it easier for you we have posted the photos below.

But you can also  view the photos submitted by members in the Gallery - where you will probably get a better view of the photos and where you can see them all at once, in thumbnail form. You can also click on the pictures there, and click again, to see them in large size.

Click on the Gallery button from the forum or click on this link :

Choose up to three photos you want to vote for noting photo details then tick the relevant boxes on the voting poll.

You will not see the results until the voting has closed on 30 June 2012 (closing time for your time zone is indicated at the bottom of the poll), after which the winner will be announced.


Good luck everyone who entered photos and thank you to everyone voting!

Enjoy the pictures of the Queen's reign (our Queen!) and, if one of them is yours, you might just win that wonderful book about the new Queen Elizabeth .
