About 15,000 people have gathered at Stonehenge to watch the summer solstice sunrise.
English Heritage opens up the stones every year for visitors to enjoy the solstice at the historic site near Salisbury in Wiltshire.
It went ahead as normal after Just Stop Oil protestors sprayed orange powder paint on the stones on Wednesday.
English Heritage said it had removed the paint with a specialist air blower, but if rain had come into contact with it, there could have been significant damage.
Summer solstice is one of the rare occasions when people can get close to the ancient monument.
