King Charles and Queen Camilla were both out and about in London on Tuesday, arriving at separate engagements for two organisations close to their hearts.
Queen Camilla made a royal arrival at the Royal Academy of Dance, where she serves as the organisation's official Royal Patron.
The Queen was welcomed at the London institution as she continued her support for the arts.
Meanwhile, King Charles headed to Bayswater to mark the Victoria League for Commonwealth Friendship's 125th anniversary at a special garden party.
The King attended in his capacity as Patron of the foundation, which has spent more than a century fostering connections across the Commonwealth and provides affordable accommodation for students and young people at its London headquarters.
A wasp landed on the back of the King's head but this time a royal protection officer who batted the insect away instead of the Queen.
The monarch was later seen rubbing the back of his head, appearing to have noticed the unwelcome guest.
