The RN holds an annual competition for the best photo of the year. Four of this year's entries are below. The best to me is the helicopter not a ship photo.

HMS Velox (1902) at sea. She was one of the first destroyers to be fitted with the Parsons steam turbine which caused less vibration issues and a better ability to cruise at high speed than her expansion engine powered sisters.
