It's the Queen's Diamond Jubilee in 2012 - that's 60 years of being on the throne - and as it's a huge occasion, preparations are already under way.
As part of the celebrations, a collection of 60 of some of the most striking images of the Queen are going on display around the country in a special exhibition.
Queen Elizabeth II has one of the most recognisable faces in the world - and she usually has her eyes open in her portraits - not like this one!
The 60 pics will go on display in Edinburgh, Belfast, Cardiff and then London. They include this unusual image of the Queen's head floating away from her body...
... and this photograph from 1968, where it looks like she doesn't mind a spot of rain!
As well as this life-size painting of the Queen, the travelling exhibition also includes postage stamps, because the Queen's got her picture on them too!
