June,

Once you have chosen the image you would like to use I would be happy to do any necessary editing and image preparation to make it ready for printing.

I have originals of all the 2014 calendar images on my storage system. As long as the photographer/s who own the copyright are happy for their image to be used I can do the editing.

Hi Alan -

Thank you very, very much for your offer to make the image ready for printing.  And, yes, we would have to get permission from the owner of the photo.  How does one attach an image in setting up a poll for The Forum, such as showing all of the images from the 2014 calendar ?

Thanks again !

June   :)

The best way to go about it June would be to attach all the images into the post with a title, and then just vote for the title in the poll? (Am I making sense?) Like the monthly photo competition is set up. I am happy to help you set it up if you need a hand.  :)

Hi Adam -

Thank you very much for your post and thank you very much for your offer of help, which I will accept.  I think we have to take the winning image from each of the monthly competitions for 2014.  Correct me if I am wrong, but I am not sure they are all in one place.  Do we have a representation of the calendar here which shows all of the photos in the calendar ?

June,

Why not just choose your favourite image, so it will be a surprise for the first person who receives it :)

Hi Rob -

Thanks for your post and that is a good idea.  The problem is I might have to make 12 puzzles as all of the photos are amazing !   June  ;D

Hi June

If you need any help I can point you in the direction of the winning pictures and help you start the poll. (Or, as Rob has said, you could pick one you like.) - Adam

Great to see you finding your way around the Forum! Yes, it has become big :) .

All the winning images are easy to find, and indeed we have a permanent link to them on the front page!

QE2 Story Forum » General QE2 » Photo Competition and QE2 Calendar » Photo Competition Results (2015 Calendar)

https://www.theqe2story.com/forum/index.php/topic,5816.0.html

These are the winning images which we shall possibly find in the 2015 calendar. You will find the older winning images in the same section of the Forum.

Thank you very much to Isabelle and Lynda for your help in locating the winning pictures and other ways of getting to the photos to post.  I think I may, as Rob suggested, choose a photo from the calendar and surprise everyone.  I looked over my calendar again in detail, and I believe I have chosen one....June   ;D

Now, next decision - 500 piece or 750 piece ?   :)
