In pictures: Blues and Royals horses cool off in Scottish sun, sea and sand
Members of a cavalry regiment made the most of Sunday's beautiful sunny weather and took their horses for some exercise on a scenic Scottish beach.
The Blues and Royals, part of the Household Cavalry, went for a walkabout along Yellowcraig Beach near North Berwick and even waded into the North Sea at one point for a cooling dip.
The regiment was fresh from carrying out ceremonial duties during the national service of thanksgiving held in Edinburgh last week to mark the coronation of the King.
