King and Queen enjoy Braemar Highland Games

The King and Queen appeared in jovial mood as they attended the Braemar Gathering Highland Games in Aberdeenshire.

The annual event, held a short distance from their summer residence at Balmoral, has been running in its present form since 1832, and has been attended by the reigning monarch since 1848.

Competitors took part in traditional games including tug-of-war and the caber toss, and enjoyed performances by bagpipers, drummers and dancers.

The King, who was a regular spectator at the games while Duke of Rothesay, will celebrate two years since his accession to the throne on Sunday.
