The Queen's granddaughters Princess Eugenie and Zara Tindall shed tears as they and other senior members of the Royal Family inspected flowers left by mourners at Balmoral.
It is the first time they have been seen in public since the death of the Queen on Thursday.
The granddaughters were joined looking at bouquets by Prince Andrew, Princess Beatrice, Prince Edward, Sophie Countess of Wessex, their daughter Lady Louise Windsor, and Princess Anne on their way back from a private prayer service at nearby Crathie Kirk.
