The hair looks the same to me - but she can't hide the bags under the eyes and the puffy cheeks - both signs of illness and tiredness.
 
I agree. She looks older. Her face has changed I think. Not surprising since we are all getting older every day. I think it is more noticeable when we are older maybe.

I love seeing HM meeting w/the Ambassadors from the African Countries. Their National Dress is always made up w/such bright and cheerful colours and personality, how can you not smile? :)
 
No offence to The Queen but in both pictures her hands just look wrinkly.

It's been interesting reading about the new Australian Governor-General Peter Cosgrove. I was born a Cosgrove and I have a cousin Peter Cosgrove!

The Duke of Edinburgh today visited Lille Barracks in Aldershot where he was briefed on what the 1st Battalion has been doing in recent months. One if its companies, The Queen's Company, had been to the Falkland Islands for eight weeks and he recalled a couple of visits to the South Atlantic, one of which included an unsuccessful fishing trip.

Another photo of the Queen receiving Angela Merkel. Image

Is the black and white wedding photo in the left hand side of Peter and Autumn? It looks too modern to be of any of her children, and it's not William and Catherine's.

I love that this room is a bit like a dedication to the soldier's and navel officers in her family in the shape of photos of them all. :)

It's Mike & Zara's wedding picture. On that same table is William & Catherine's engagement portrait.
