Troops play up for the camera in the shadow of Edinburgh Castle.

A distinct lack of military discipline is evident in these murky pictures of the oldest and most senior infantry regiment in the British Army. It's worth persevering with the clunky camerawork to catch the rare and unusually humanising close-ups of the men at ease. One young man steals the show, luxuriantly chewing a piece of toffee before theatrically blowing kisses at the camera.

M&K 798: The image quality is poor due to mould. Pan of troop lined up. Could be the castle grounds. Orders are read out from a sheet. Another shot of close-up of soldiers. A soldier blows kisses to the camera. Another shot of soldier holding up a boy. Another shot of dignitaries. Shot of soldiers walking past camera. Another shot of a lady getting out of a carriage. She inspects the troops. Final pan of some of the troop.
