We have a winner! Our annual photography competition came up trumps again with some amazing entries making it a really difficult decision for our panel of judges.
However, the entry that stood out most was a beautiful video submitted by Tom Wilde which captured his wonderful trip experiencing the majestic waters of the Maldives from Emperor Explorer.
With a maximum limit of 20 seconds, it was always going to be tricky to encapsulate a whole diving holiday but we thought Tom did it brilliantly.
As the winner, he is now the recipient of a FREE space on board Emperor Bilikiki and we can’t wait to welcome him to the Solomon Islands to share the magic of our newest destination.
The brief for our competition was for guests to tell their tale of time spent with us through either five pictures or a short video. Your diving, your sightings, your laughs, your fun, your choice – your story.
And so many of you did a great job with special mention going to fabulous entries by Norm Vexler of his time on Emperor Bilikiki, Patricia Fessler who sent us images of her ‘life-changing’ introduction to diving at our beautiful Wadi Sabarah dive centre, and Dave Weeks whose trip to join us in the Red Sea included getting close up to some stunning marine life.
So, congratulations to Tom Wilde on his success and we hope he has a fantastic time with us on Emperor Bilikiki.
Thank you to all of you who entered and gave us such a tough time picking a winner. For those who weren’t successful on this occasion, keep your eyes peeled later this year when the next instalment of our ever-popular competition launches in 2025.
