Cult of taking photos with serviceman

The changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace is one of those ceremonies that all tourists would like to see. It occurs from April to July every day, and the rest of the year - every other day. The ceremony starts at 11:30 and lasts about 45 minutes. It is attended by the Queen's guard from a special unit, which is called the "home" or the "Queen's Guard". During the ceremony of changing the guard, new sentries change the soldiers standing at their posts.

All this ceremony is accompanied by a beautiful parade of stately guards in bright uniforms and high bear caps. Almost everyone wants to take a picture of the queen's own guard, so that subscribers, seguidores instagram, can envy them. It is not known where the cult of photography next to the military service came from, because tourists always tend to capture themselves near the mounted police, and near the police in a strict presentable uniform in general.
