A PROFESSIONAL photographer's images of the Queen's visit to the region earlier this month have been put on show.

Keith Taylor, who often works on behalf of The Northern Echo, has put the display together at Darlington Building Society's branch in Tubwell Row, Darlington, to commemorate the golden jubilee.

The photographs not only show the Queen during her visit, but also the build-up to her arrival, featuring faces in the crowd.

Members of the public are invited to visit the display and copies of the photographs are available at a small charge.

The display will be in place until the end of the Jubilee celebrations in early June.

David Copland, marketing and communications manager at the society, said: "The Queen's visit to Darlington was a fantastic occasion for the town and we wanted to mark it in a memorable way.

"We hope our customers enjoy the display and that it brings back memories of a very special day.
