The Prince and Princess of Wales have shared a new family photograph on Instagram following yesterday's Trooping the Colour celebrations.
The image shows William and Catherine with their three children - Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis - in what appears to be a relaxed, behind-the-scenes moment.
The post was captioned: "Another brilliant day at Trooping the Colour for His Majesty's Birthday Parade. Thank you to everybody who came, and to all those who took part."
The photograph was taken with the family still wearing their outfits from the day's events, capturing a personal moment after the formal proceedings had concluded.

The photograph was taken at the family's Kensington Palace home, with the royals still dressed in their ceremonial attire from the day's celebrations.
Kate remained in her aquamarine ensemble, featuring a Catherine Walker coat dress.
Her "Bria" dress was described as: "A deep aquamarine wool coatdress with ivory contrast lapels and cuffs."
The Princess of Wales wore a matching blue hat by Juliette Botterill and earrings that belonged to the late Queen Elizabeth II.

In addition, Kate accessorised with the Irish Guards Regimental Brooch.
Princess Charlotte, 10, matched her mother in a similar green-blue dress with a white bow in her hair and a diamond horseshoe brooch with a special meaning.
The piece originally belonged to the Queen Mother, who was first photographed wearing the jewellery in 1929, nearly a century ago.
Queen Elizabeth II gifted the historic brooch to her great-granddaughter, who first wore it publicly at the late monarch's funeral.
William rode solo as part of the military procession.

Prince George and Louis wore matching dark suits and red ties.
William, who took on a separate role during the Trooping the Colour from his wife and children, was seen in the image wearing his full military regalia.
He wore the light blue sash of the Irish Guards over his resplendent red uniform and a bearskin hat.
Kate, George, Charlotte and Louis waved to fans as they rode in an open top Ascot Landau carriage down The Mall.
