The Queens Guard Tapestries
Description: Changing Of The Guard At Buckingham Palace The Regimental Band outside Buckingham Palace in London, UK Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace is the ceremony where The Queen's Guard hands over responsibility for protecting Buckingham Palace and St. James's Palace to the New Guard. So why do these guards wear tall black hats and conspicuous red tunics? As hard as it may be to believe, the uniform was supposed to intimidate opposing armies. "The idea was that you made your foot soldiers look taller and therefore more fearsome," By Paul Thompson Photography
