The first changing of the guard has taken place since King Charles III was named as Britain's new monarch on Saturday.
The Changing of the Guard had been cancelled following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, but has returned after the proclamation of King Charles.
Number 7 Company The Coldstream Guards formally handed over duties to Number 12 Company Irish Guards in simultaneous ceremonies that were held on the forecourt of Buckingham Palace and St James's Palace in central London on Monday.
It is also the first time there has been a changing of the King's Guard at the royal palaces for 70 years.
