King Charles and Queen Camilla have joined cheering crowds watching Highland games events at the annual Braemar Gathering in Royal Deeside.
The event, which draws spectators from around the world, is held on the first Saturday of September every year and coincides with the monarch’s annual summer holiday at nearby Balmoral.
Among the events watched by the spectators were tug-of-war, caber tossing, hammer throwing, Highland dancing and a parade of pipe bands.
This is the third Games that the King has attended since his coronation.
