PEPPER!!!!! Outstanding!!! You have outdone even yourself with these.

Cunard's publicity shots don't show QV as well as you have done here. These are truly brilliant! I'd venture to say these are some of the best and most comprehensive shots of QV one can find anywhere online. For someone contemplating sailing on her they couldn't ask for a better overview than this series of photos.

Now then...what did you do with all the other passengers?? Never mind...I can guess!

As one who is very familiar with all your great photography I can only say again......WELL DONE!!!

Cheers, Penny

Penny’s Affair to Remember QM2 Review
http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=471053

November 10,2007...the “Affair” continued...did it ever!

October 16,2008...the “Affair” goes transatlantic as we sail in tandem with the grand QE2 on her final transatlantic voyage...what a thrill!

December 9, 2008....the “Affair” resumes again....Life is good!

July 30, 2009....transatlantic again...some “Affairs” just get better

August 7, 2009....the “Affair” goes on...this time “home” to Norway

2010....the “Affair” is indecisive, but booked for at least 10 days somewhere

Were you on the Gallic Getaway 2?
I'm afraid I had to give up looking at your photos because I keep getting a pop-up advertising Halloween Ecards (even though I have a pop-up blocker).
A shame.

What an extensive and wonderful collection of photos! Very thorough and it sure brought back great memories. She is a warm, beautiful, comfortable and classy ship. We have been on the Mary many many times and didn't think we'd like another ship as much but, after her first world cruise, we think she is a grand experience and wish everyone could have the chance to experience her. I can't wait to see your review.

I've been having trouble when I'm on this site with pop-ups also, sometimes it is worse than others.

So sorry to hear you had problems, I don't get pop-ups myself. And, now Halloween is over, so maybe the pop-ups are as well! Also, I wonder if they affect the slideshow view?

Thanks for trying anyway, much appreciated.

Many thanks for your great words, very good of you to comment. Glad the pictures brought back happy memories.

I am working on my review and hope to post it before the end of the week.

Thanks again,
