It’s that time of year again - the Royal Highland Show is back, running from Thursday to Sunday.
The country’s biggest agricultural show, it will see almost 200,000 visitors pass through the gates, and more than 4,000 farm animals are brought to the arena.
Hundreds of businesses have filled up the grounds, selling everything from agricultural machinery, clothing and motor vehicles to Scottish food and drink.
Here are 18 images from this year’s RHS.
