This week's batch of beautiful Royal Caribbean photos is here and it's always fun to share with all of you the great photos our readers take while on their cruise vacation.

The photos we have to show this week are fun and of course anyone can send us their Royal Caribbean photos to use as well!

First up is this photo from Rina from Allure of the Seas.  It's an aft view facing the Boardwalk and reminds me just how massive this ship is.

John Siegmund sent in this photo of the sunset sailing home from Key West on Majesty of the Seas.  I love sunset photos!

Next we have this photo of Vision of the Seas by Dana and Patricia Hall.  It was taken while Vision of the Seas docked in downtown Oslo, Norway during a transatlantic cruise.  Need to add this to my bucket list.

Matt Smith sent this photo from a Radiance of the Seas cruise, in Juneau Alaska, Mt Roberts Tram. You can see Rhapsody of the Seas , Radiance of the Seas and the Zamdaam from Holland America line.

Lastly we have this photo of Explorer of the Seas docked in Phillipsburg, St. Marteen last week. This photo was taken on a hill top that our tour guide Leo Brown suggested. Love Leo and love the color of the water!

Do you have Royal Caribbean photos that you want to share?  We'd love to feature them so send them in by using our nifty submission form and maybe your photos will show up in next week's edition!

We love sharing Royal Caribbean photos that our readers send in because they are so much fun to look at.  We want your photos too, so send us your best Royal Caribbean photos to share with the world.

Our first photo this week is from Karen Boerner of the Centrum on Enchantment of the Seas during night.  I believe Royal Caribbean ships look exceptionally beautiful at night and this photo proves that theory!

Marie Cischigano sent in this photo of her relaxing on her balcony on Freedom of the Seas.  Great view and this is why so many people love to get balcony staterooms.

Next is this photo by Paul Wilson of Navigator of the Seas while he was in Roatan.  One of my favorite ships in Royal Caribbean fleet and taken on a beautiful island!

Frank Battiston sent us this photo from Allure of the Seas when the crew helped rescue 15 people who were stranded at sea. Well done, Royal Caribbean!

Lastly we have this photo by Matt Carrera of enjoying Antigua's local brew while on a Jewel of the Seas cruise.  It's always a plus to enjoy an adult beverage while on a beautiful island's beach.

If we didn't include your photo this week, then that means you need to send it in to us for use on a future Friday Photos post.  We want to see your favorite Royal Caribbean cruise photos and you can use this form to send them to us.

Our first photo this week is from Marie Coscgigano of Freedom of the Seas.  It's a beautiful ship and one of the best ships in the fleet!

Here's a photo by Karen Boerner of why she now books balcony staterooms: room service breakfast outside! Great idea and that looks like a great way to start your day.

Great sunset by Keith Davis taken from the Seaview Cafe on Jewel of the Seas while sailing out of Tampa. Gorgeous!

Speaking of sunsets, here's another one taken on Voyager of the Seas from Hobart, Tasmania by Rudi Steinmetz.  Rudi writes, "Nothing better than watching the sun rise while on a Royal Caribbean Cruise." Amen!

Lastly here is a view from the bridge of Allure of the Seas during a behind the scenes tour by Dana and Patricia Hall.  Being on the bridge is a really cool event!

Leading things off this week is a photo by Michael Poole of Enchantment of the Seas as seen from CocoCay.  Not sure if I wish I was on Enchantment or CocoCay more right now!

Next we have this photo by Greta looking out at her balcony as the sun is rising on Freedom fo the Seas.  If I ever woke up early enough to see sunrise, this would be something great to see.

Here's a photo from Marie Coschigano in St. Maarten of my good friend Leo Brown.  Leo has driven me a few times in St. Maarten and I'm so happy to see others have enjoyed his services too!

Garrett Keating sent me this photo from Explorer of the Seas on his way to Bermuda and because it's well established that I am a sucker for sunset photos, you will understand why I am including this one. Absolutely beautiful photo!

Mike from Autism on the Seas sent in this photo from Freedom of the Seas this week as it was on its way to Jamaica.  Autism on the Seas is such a wonderful organization and this photo is a great shot!

We love sharing Royal Caribbean photos with all of our readers and so each week we ask our readers to send us their favorite Royal Caribbean cruise photos to be featured right here on the blog!

First up is this photo of Oceanaria on Allure of the Seas by Harry A. Yerikyan.  Great show and love the Aqua Theater!

Next we have this photo from Michael Poole of the beautiful centrum on Enchantment of the Seas. Taken on June 13th 2014. Michael has sent us a lot of photos but this is my favorite so far!

Greta sent us photo of Freedom of the Seas docked in St. Thomas as seen from a ferry headed to St. Johns.

Next we have photo by Steve Ritter from Serenade of the Seas at Tracy Arm Fjord, Sawyer Glacier, in July 2009. The crew decided to capture a large chunk of ice, bring it aboard, and made a beautiful ice sculpture out of it. All this happened while Serenade slowly rotated using her Azipods and thrusters to give everyone a beautiful view of the glacier and surrounding fjords. A wonderful voyage!

Lastly we have this photo of Marie Coschigano posing for a photo while at CocoCay.  Who doesn't wish they were on CocoCay right now too?

Is your Royal Caribbean photo not here? Well, send us your favorite Royal Caribbean photos and we will include them in a future Friday Photos post!

Once more it is Friday and once more we are sharing lots of fun Royal Caribbean photos our readers have sent in to us.  Let's get started!

This week's first photo comes to us from Michael Poole and it's from Oasis of the Seas in Central Park.  Michael wrote, "I wish I was having dinner in Central Park now".  Me too!

I love the vantage point of this photo from Marc and Lisa Sandhaus from their Legend of the Seas cruise to Labadee.  Beautiful!

Next is a photo from Mary from Radiance of the Seas. Mary writes, "Looking up while relaxing outside the lobby bar aboard the Radiance of the Seas. Great Alaskan cruise!"

The wonderful support group Autism on the Seas sent us this photo from their Group Cruise onboard Grandeur of the Seas.  It was taken during a group excursion at Snorkel Park Beach in Bermuda and it looks like everyone was having a great time!

Last but not least is this photo again taken in Labadee (my favorite!) by Ken Slusser.  It was taken while Ken was on Independence of the Seas and I would love to take a swim there right now!

This week's photos were great but we want more of your Royal Caribbean photos, so please use this form to send us your favorite Royal Caribbean photos so we can share them on the blog!

Our first photo this week is from John Siegmund and it's of the entrance to the Viking Crown Lounge on Vision of the Seas. A great place to spend some time and enjoy the view!

Mike Cook sent us this photo of the Royal Promenade during a late departure on Independence of the Seas.  Mike had the the ship to himself!

François St-Onge sent us this photo from Liberty of the Seas in Port of Livorno, Italy as a Pullmantur ship departs.  Amazing colors!

The weekend is here and that means it's time to share your Royal Caribbean photos!  Each week we invite our readers to share their favorite Royal Caribbean photos with all of us, so here we go!

First up is a photo of the sunset in St. Thomas by Kyle from DC.  Gorgeous!

Ken Slusser sent us this photo of the officers on Independence of the Seas playing pool volleyball against the passengers.  I've never seen this happen but I wish it would happen more often!

Next is a photo from May of Radiance of the Seas taken from a whale watching excursion boat in Icy Strait Point, Alaska.  Alaska always produces such great photos.

Woodrow Herron sent in this photo of their "Make a Wish" auction for Chef's Table lunch that was personally served by Executive Chef Lorenzo Dearie.  What an experience!  

Here's a photo by Donal Kavanagh from Adventure of the Seas.  Donal writes, "I just really liked the reflections in the windows of the Viking Crown lounge when looking up from the main pool deck.".  I'm pretty sure everything looks great when you're on the pool deck on a Royal Caribbean cruise.

Mike Cook sent us this photo of Independence of the Seas deep into the heart of the fjords at Skjolden around midnight.  I like the shadows created by the fjords against the sky.

Liberty of the Seas while passing by Nice, France.  François St-Onge sent in this photo and it's a cool sight when a cruise ship like this is passing by like this!

 think this was a great collection of photos this week and of course we want to see your photos too!  Use this form to send us your best Royal Caribbean photos and we will feature them in an upcoming blog post!

The weekend is almost here and that means it is once again time to show off our readers' Royal Caribbean cruise photos because, well, we think these photos are a great way to take a quick "virtual trip" back onboard.  Here we go!

I like this photo that Kyle from DC sent us because he titled it, "Now this is the life" and it was taken in St Maarten.  Couldn't agree more!

Next is a photo from Ken Slusser of his Behind the Scenes tour on Allure of the Seas, where he got to see 4000 lobster tails being prepared for dinner. Yum!

Michael Poole sent us this photo of Enchantment of the Seas that he took while on CocoCay.  Not a bad view!

I really like this photo by Richard Todd of Oasis of the Seas tied up next to the Carnival Glory while docked in Nassau.  Great perspective!

Here's a photo of the Royal Promenade on Navigator of the Seas by Jack.  I really love how it looks post-refurbishment!

Great photo of two Royal Caribbean ships docked together in Cozumel by Mary. One is Jewel of the Seas but nbot sure whuch is the other ship behind her.

Our last photo is from Woodrow Herron and he writes, "Wow, just got back from the Allure where we won the "Make a Wish" auction for the Chef's Table for lunch. Had an exceptional lunch served by Executive Chef Lorenzo Dearie paired with wonderful hand selected wines served by Sommelier Rudi Duvenage! Going back and doing it again!"

I think this was a great collection of photos this week and of course we want to see your photos too!  Use this form to send us your best Royal Caribbean photos and we will feature them in an upcoming blog post!

Happy Friday! We've got a slew of great Royal Caribbean photos that our readers have sent in and each Friday we showcase them right here for all of you. Enjoy!

I can never have enough sunsets, so we will start off with this photo of a sunset in the Caribbean from Kyle.  Love it!

Ken Slusser sent us this photo of Enchantment of the Seas' pool deck from his June 2012 cruise.  Ken mentions they had great weather and really enjoyed the ship!

Here's a photo of Rhapsody of the Seas as she departs Circular Quay, Sydney, Australia by Wes Brown.  Wes took the photo from the Opera Bar, Sydney Opera House.

Mary sent us this photo from Maho Beach in St Marten of an airplane landing.  I loved visiting this little tourist trap because, well, it's just so cool to see the planes land like this.

Next is a photo from John Siegmund of aerial performers from Renaissance Aerial Spectacular on Vision of the Seas.  Awesome show!

Michael Poole sent us this photo of what he does when he firsts boards any Royal Caribbean ship.  He finds these little maps to find his away around. This is from his Oasis of the Seas cruises in 2013.

Did I mention I like sunset photos? Here's another one from Don Harlan from his Serenade of the Seas cruise.  This one was from the Mediterranean so we're expanding our collection of sunset pics.

Our last photo this week comes from Mike Jones and it was taken n Flam, Norway.  While on Independence of the Seas he snapped this photo with the ship and mountains (or are they fjords?) in the background.  Spectacular!

Be sure to send us your Royal Caribbean photos so we can feature them here too!  Use this form to send us your photos and we will include them in future posts.  Have a great weekend!
