Our 2012 desk calendar theme will feature images that reflect your favorite landmarks or sights--where you live or anywhere in the world.

We are looking for your photographs that are natural, national, cultural--what you feel represents where you're from and who you are. A terrific view. A popular location. Historical, contemporary. The unusual. Sights and scenes that say, "Look at this!"

Show us what A World of Pride means to you.

The 14 creme de la creme images will be published in our 2012 official calendar.

Thank you to all contest participants!

Queen's Head - Yehliu, Taiwan


The photo was taken dated 16 July 2011 in Yehliu Taiwan.  

Queen’s Head, one of the most famous scenes in Yehliu, is a kind of mushroom rock. It is formed due to the differential erosion caused by seawater during curst movement. When comparing the height of which with the crust’s rising rate, it is assessed that the age of the rock is about 4000 years old. The so called “queen’s Head” is in fact a mushroom rock; it gets the title because the shape as formed after the top of rock being fallen apart in 1962~1963 appears like the side face of Queen Elizabeth.

Queen’s Head is regarded as the landmark of Yehliu, yet its fame doesn’t bring any good to itself since it not only undertakes natural devastation but also bring spoiled by mankind. The narrowest part around its neck is about 138 cm now.
