Crowds braved the wind and rain to catch a glimpse of Princess Anne as she visited Carrickfergus on Wednesday.
The Princess Royal was pictured in the town, first on arrival at Carrickfergus Town Hall, where she was dressed in her full military uniform this afternoon.
On her visit to the town hall, Princess Anne also attended a ceremonial event to mark the 80th anniversary of the Sea Cadets in Northern Ireland.

The late Queen's daughter has been a Patron for the Royal Navy and Royal Marines Charity since 2007.
DUP MLA for North Belfast, Brian Kingston, was in attendance at the event.
In a tweet, he said: "Delighted to attend 80th anniversary celebration of Sea Cadets in Northern Ireland with principal guest Her Royal Highness the Princess Royal (Princess Anne), in my capacity as honorary President of Belfast Eagle Sea Cadets.
"A very positive event, moved indoors due to weather!"
A number of roads in the town centre were closed for a period of time to facilitate the visit, with Princess Anne arriving as part of a convoy.
Local woman Claire McClenaghan was one of those who lined the streets to see Princess Anne. She said: "It was a really bad day but the weather didn’t dampen the spirits to see Princess Anne in Carrickfergus.
"I follow the Royals so it was good to see her in Carrickfergus, especially when we had William and Kate here last month."
Last month, on October 6, the Prince and Princess of Wales, William and Kate, visited Northern Ireland. The Royals first stopped by suicide prevention charity PIPS in North Belfast, then visited Trademarket on the Dublin Road before heading to Carrickfergus.
Yesterday, Princess Anne was also spotted during a visit to the south of England, in which she presided over the opening of a new community hub.
The local hub is expected to come to the aid of 435 children in the Gosport and Fareham area of Hampshire.
