12 votes so far, and two photos are tied for first place. All of the entries are wonderful and so evocative of the wonderful memories given to us by our beloved QE2. Please do have a look and vote for your three favourites if you have not already done so.  :)

That was how I first saw the Queens Room :) I always preferred that to its later blue and gold scheme but that's a case of liking what we know :)

14 voters so far, and several photos doing well. Looking forward to more votes, and of course also to discussion and appreciation of the pictures.

The photo competition has brought so many wonderful pictures into the Forum, which would otherwise not have been part of a collection. For my own pictures, for instance, it is great to see them taking their place alongside related pictures by other photographers, thus helping us all to have a much more rounded view of QE2.

I do hope the photo competitions will continue -- but that also depends on all Forum members and whether many of us are willing to share photos as well as opinions (i.e. votes).

15 votes so far.  Have you made your selection ?  If not, please have a look at all the marvelous photos of QE2's Queens Room.  They are magnificent and well worth the time to view them and then join those of us who have voted.   :)

Just voted! Fantastic photos! Shame there's no photos of the original incarnation of the Queen's Room.

Nineteen people have voted with one photo out in front and two close behind.  Hope we get lots more votes before the competition closes on Wednesday.

21 votes so far - one photo clearly in the lead but being rapidly pursued by two photos tied for runner up.

As the photos reach the "home stretch", how many more votes can we get ?   ;D

There is still a short time left to cast your ballot for your three favorite photos.  We still have a tie for runner up and the first place photo is a bit in the lead. 

If you have not taken part in the photo competition voting, have a go at it.  It is fun and also is a great chance to see some wonderful QE2 photos !
