England – The changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace draws tourists from far and wide, but on Sunday visitors were treated to a different sort of spectacle, a parade of corgis dressed up in crowns, tiaras, and royal outfits.
Around 20 royal fans and their pet corgis walked their dogs outside the palace to commemorate a year since Queen Elizabeth II's death.
Corgis were the late queen's constant companions, with Elizabeth owning around 30 throughout her life. The dogs descended from Susan, a corgi that was given to the queen on her 18th birthday.
Corgi parade organiser Agatha Crerer-Gilbert said she would like the corgi march to take place every year in Elizabeth's memory.

"I can't see a better way to remember her than through her corgis, through the breed that she loved and cherished through her life," she explained.
"You know, I can't still get used to the fact that she's not physically around us, but she's looking at us. Look, the sun is shining, I thought it would shine on us today,"
Corgi owner Aleksandr Barmin, has taken his pet Cinnamon to attend past royal-related events and said the parade was a poignant reminder, "It's a really hard feeling, to be honest, it's really sad that we don't have (the queen) among us anymore," he said.
As known, on September 8 will be the first anniversary of the Queen's passing and Britain's longest-reigning sovereign. She was queen for 70 years and became the Britain's longest reigning monarch in history.
