There is quite a large gallery of QE2 photos here :

http://www.marinetraffic.com/en/photos/of/ships/photo_keywords:6725418/ship_name:QUEEN%20ELIZABETH%202

The second (of four) pages is not working for me at present, I hope that is just a temporary glitch.

I came across this "QE2 Time Machine" video on You Tube and really enjoyed how Highland0108 put together photos to give a timeline of QE2 over the years.  The  music makes video even more dramatic

But I am also adding the You Tube link again so that you can enjoy.  In my opinion this is brilliant!

Great video! Time by Pink Floyd is one of the particularly apt songs in QE2's case being from 1973 (quick Google search) the other apt song being Viva La Vida by Coldplay being released in November 2008 days before her arrival in Dubai.
First sailed on QE2 in August 2003 aged 6 years old. Last sailed on QE2 in July 2008. Last saw the seagoing QE2 in person from the decks of QM2, on QE2's last Transatlantic crossing (Eastbound tandem) in October 2008. Visited QE2 in her new life, in Dubai, in January 2020 and August 2022.

As a reminder - and Information for people who didn't manage to get to see QE2 when she was still in service as an ocean going liner, here are some superb photographs taken by Andy Fitzsimmons before November 2008
There are many other 'QE2' albums also in flickr

Off topic - and may require repositioning!

If you need a "feel good factor" just watch the Amarillo video and the second video with the outtakes, which is so funny.

These videos are classics that make me laugh time and time again!  ;D
