King Charles' Coronation brought pomp and ceremony to screens around the globe this weekend.
Dramatic hats, bejewelled swords, gold carriages, hundreds of horses and diamond-laden crowns were all on display.
Watching every minute of the big day, just about, was Shirley Faber in Whangārei.
She has lived through three coronations: King George the Sixth in 1937, Queen Elizabeth the Second in 1953, and now King Charles the Third.
