Life on board the Royal Navy's largest warship, HMS Queen Elizabeth, have been revealed in images taken by members of its crew.

The photographs show how the personnel have been spending free time when not involved in putting the aircraft carrier through sea trials off the Scottish coast.

Military contractor, the Aircraft Carrier Alliance, is using the sea trials to check how the Rosyth-built ship operates.

The trials began in June before resuming again last month following a stopover at Invergordon on the Cromarty Firth.
