King Charles celebrated his first official birthday parade as sovereign, riding on horseback to inspect soldiers in a ceremony that has been an annual event since 1760
The parade, known as "Trooping the Colour", comes just weeks after Charles's coronation on May 6, another ceremony featuring soldiers marching in scarlet coats and bearskin fur hats in central London accompanied to music played by military bands.
In what is the British military's annual tribute to the monarch, Charles was greeted by a Royal Salute, and carried out an inspection of soldiers in front of 8,000 spectators, followed by his son the Prince of Wales, his sister Princess Anne and his brother the Duke of Edinburgh also on horseback.
Charles was then due to return to Buckingham Palace with his family where they will gather on the building's famous balcony to watch a fly-past of around 70 military aircraft and helicopters starting at 1200 GMT.
